Scattering of ferromagnetic band-electrons by phonons combined with the spin–orbit interaction is shown to cause magnetic relaxation of the Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert type. Two formally distinct processes are simply analyzed: (a) spin-flip scattering of electrons and (b) ordinary scattering between spin-dependent band levels. Estimates of the magnitude of the damping constant λ are derived for both cases, which agree in orders of magnitude with the experimental values for Fe and Ni. Relations of direct and inverse proportionality between λ and the ordinary collision frequency are found in the cases (a) and (b), respectively.

We present a practical approach for computing the Breit-Pauli spin-orbit matrix elements of multiconfigurational systems with both spin and spatial degeneracies based on our recently developed RAS-nSF-IP/EA method (JCTC, 15,<br>2278, 2019). The spin-orbit matrix elements over all the multiplet components are computed using a single one-particle reduced density matrix as a result of the Wigner-Eckart theorem. A mean field spin-orbit approximation was used to account for the two-electron contributions. Basis set dependence as well as the effect of including additional excitations is presented. The effect of correlating the core and semi-core orbitals is also examined. Surprisingly accurate results are obtained for spin-orbit coupling constants, despite the fact that the efficient wavefunction approximations we explore neglect the bulk of dynamical correlation.<br>

We examine the sensitivity of nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) for light-neutrino exchange mechanism of neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) for 48Ca to the various components of two-nucleon interaction, GXPF1A, in fp model space. It is found that the contribution in NMEs coming from the central component is close to contribution from total interaction. The spin-orbit and tensor components are found canceling the contribution of each other.
