In this work we investigate the vibrational properties of Ni-Mn-Ga alloys by using the Three Axis Spectrometers (TAS) PUMA (for thermal neutrons) and PANDA (for cold neutrons) which are located in FRM II, Garching. To approve the first principle calculations the whole dispersions of stoichiometric sample were measured in high temperature austenite and low temperature martensite phases. The temperature dependence of the vibrational properties in both stoichiometric and off-stoichiometric sample were investigated. In the austenite phase we observe a softening at TA2[q q 0] branch in both stoichiometric and off-stoichiometric samples. In stoichiometric sample the softening is more prominent than the off-stoichiometric one and the minimum of the softening is at 0.33 and 0.27 for stoichiometric and off-stoichiometric samples, respectively. The temperature dependence of vibrational properties of TA2[q q 0] branch in pre-martensitic phase were investigated in stoichiometric sample. The results showed that in the vibrational point of view the 5-layered martensite phase and the pre-martensite phase have the same behavior but it is not the case in low energy excitations.
