Abstract
We report on X-ray magneto-optics (XMOKE) at the 4d-4f excitation threshold of rare-earth elements and its application to measuring temperature-depend ent magnetization as well as element-specific hysteresis curves in heteroma gnetic multilayers. We outline some advantages of XMOKE as compared to stan dard magnetooptics in the visible light regime.
