MAGNETIC-RESONANCE EFFECT IN X-RAY RESONANT RAMAN-SCATTERING

The magnetic-circular-dichroism spectra of the x-ray resonant Raman sc attering associated with the Gd L alpha(1), L alpha(2), and L beta(2,1 5) fluorescence lines of the ferrimagnetic Gd-Co compound are presente d. The incident x-ray energy dependence of these spectra clearly shows not only normal resonance effects, but also magnetic resonance effect s between the excited 2p(3/2) electron and the 5d valence state, i.e., an enhancement of the magnetic effects and the appearance of a struct ure that corresponds to the magnetic effect of the total fluorescence yield.
