The discovery of X-ray Magnetic Linear Dichroism (XMLD) in 1986 [Citation1] and X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD) in 1987 [Citation2] ushered in a new era of magnetism research with objectives that previously would have been unattainable. Because of their inherent element and orbital specificity and ability to probe extremely small sample volumes, these spectroscopies have become an indispensable experimental method in studying the magnetism of complex materials. Moreover, derivation of magneto-optical sum rules [Citation3, Citation4] has greatly strengthened XMCD, offering a unique capability to deduce from the experimental spectra the orbital and spin contributions to the total magnetic moment carried by the absorbing atom.
