Abstract
A theory is presented which predicts an anomalously large magnetic dichroism in the x-ray absorption-edge structure of rare earths in magnetically ordered materials. Polarized synchrotron radiation can therefore be used to determine accurately the magnitude, the orientation, and the temperature and magnetic field dependence of the local rare-earth magnetic moment in a large variety of magnetically ordered materials and thin films.
