The disordered local moment approach to the spin-disorder resistivity of metallic ferromagnets

The spin-disorder resistivity (SDR) of transition metal ferromagnets (Fe, Co, Ni), rare-earth ferromagnet Gd, and Ni2MnSn Heusler alloy is determined from first principles. We identify the SDR at the Curie temperature with the residual resistivity of the corresponding system evaluated in the framewor...
