the measured asymmetry ratio in the resonant reflectivity and from modeling with a magnetically modified Parratt formalism that divides the Pt layer into 0.1-nm-thick sheets and assigns a magnetic optical constant to each sheet. The free parameter in the modeling is the change in this constant of each sheet due to the induced magnetization in this sheet. In the present paper we calculate by the ab initio densityfunctional electron theory the profiles of the induced orbital moments and spin moments in the Pt layers of various Com-Ptn multilayers, where m and n denote the numbers of Co monolayers and Pt monolayers in the Co and Pt layers, respectively. There are two objectives of the present study. First, the calculations are performed for ideal ~i.e., atomically flat ! Co-Pt interfaces. From a comparison of the theoretical results with the experimental data one may get an idea of how the real interfaces in the considered experiments looked like. Second, we want to consider some general critical issues concerning the analysis of XMCD spectra in multilayers. The analysis is always based on the sum rules which are not strictly valid but which rely on some approximations. 10 By comparing the directly calculated mo
