Spin - Orbit-Influenced Spectroscopies of Magnetic Solids: Proceedings of an International Workshop Held at Herrsching, Germany, April 20-23, 1995

Presented here for the first time are up-to-date reviews of a new and rapidly developing field of investigation: magnetic solids with polarized photons. The current experimental and theoretical fundamentals of the interplay of spin-orbit interaction and magnetism are described and recent advances in the understanding of the related spectroscopic phenomena are outlined. New aspects on a variety of methods are reported, covering magneto-optical Kerr-effect studies, spin- and angle-resolved ph...
