Abstract
Magnetic X-ray circular dichroism (MCD) spectra at the Pt L-2 and L-3 absorption edges of several Pt intermetallic compounds are evaluated b ased on first-principles electronic structure calculations. The result s are in good agreement with recent MCD experiments, reproducing well the shape of the observed spectra as well as their sign and relative s ize.
