Soft-X-Ray Studies of Ferromagnetic and Paramagnetic Iron

Abstract
The soft-x-ray M2,3 emission spectrum of Fe has been measured below (560°C, TTc=0.8) and above (840°C, TTc=1.07) the Curie point, and has revealed motion of distinct structural features within the d bands on passing through Tc. The results, taken with earlier photoemission data on Fe and Ni, are in excellent numerical agreement with, while in no sense providing verification of, the band ferromagnetism description of Stoner, Wohlfarth, and Slater for these metals.
