English abstract:
Using ab initio calculations we computed the ultrafast demagnetization that can be achieved by Elliott-Yafet electron-phonon spin-flip scatterings in laser-excited ferromagnets. Our calculations show that nonequilibrium laser-created distributions contribute mostly to the ultrafast demagnetization. Nonetheless, the total Elliott-Yafet contribution is too small to account for the fs-demagnetization.
