Abstract
By combining the Coherent Potential Approximation with the spin polarized relativistic Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method of band structure calculation it got possible to describe the electronic structure of disordered magnetic alloys in a fully relativistic way. This new development allowed us to extend our theoretical description of the magnetic X-ray dichroism (MXD), which is based on the spin polarized relativistic Green's function formalism, to deal not only with pure and impurity systems but also with this interesting class of materials. We demonstrate this by calculations of K- and L-edge MXD spectra in the alloy systems FexCo1−x, CoxPt1−x and FexPt1−x, which are found in a very satisfying agreement with corresponding experimental data. In addition the relationship of the integrated MXD-spectra with the calculated spin magnetic moments is discussed in short.
