  1. Spin (mS), orbital (mL), and total (mS + mL) magnetic moment per atom in Fe5GeTe2, estimated from first principles calculations. A single Fe1 site was considered to have 100% occupancy (see text). The last two lines give the calculated averaged Fe magnetic moments and the experimental values measured by XMCD, respectively.
