Abstract
We studied trends in ab initio electronic structure, spin moments, orb ital moments and magneto-optical (MO) properties of MPt3 compounds. Ca lculated quantities agree well with existing experimental data. It was found that values of local orbital moments are closely connected with the predominant spin character of the electronic states near the Ferm i energy (E-F). Features of the MO spectra are primarily defined by th e absorptive off-diagonal conductivity sigma(2,xy)(omega).
