Abstract

The Mn L2,L3 x-ray spectra of the Cu2MnAl and Co2MnZ (Z=Al,Ga, Sn, Sb) Heusler alloys have been investigated by the Resonant X-ray Emission Spectroscopy (RXES) using linearly polarized monochromatic synchrotron radiation for. The interplay between the half-metallic character of the Mn 3d electronic structure in connection with the local magnetic moment μMn and Mn 2p 3d x-ray emission spectra is discussed.
