10. When our paper was ready to be submitted a more extensive account of the results on Mn alloys given already in the present Ref. 9 has been published: M. V. Yablonskikh, Yu. M. Yarmoshenko, V. I. Grebennikov, E. Z. Kurmaev, S. M. Butorin, L.-C. Duda, J. Nordgren, S. Plogmann, and M. Neumann, Phys. Rev. B 63, 235117 (2001). Since the basic messages are not changed in this new publication, our work on Mn impurities takes into account both contributions by M.V. Yablonskikh et al.

23. In cases 10, 11, and 12 the spectrum is distributed in a wide energy range and in case 10 the scattering cross section is very low. Thus it has not been possible to obtain a statistics comparable to the other spectra as it is clear from Fig. 11. The spectra from cases 10 to 12 in Fig. 11 have roughly 50% more broadening since they have been numerically smoothed with a Gaussian convolution. This has no effect on the position of the main inelastic peak of spectrum 10.

28. For example, an optimized experiment at the new beam line ID08 of the ESRF can probably go close to this ideal condition. This new beam line is supporting the first experiments starting from spring 2001.

32. We have done also the calculation in the “two-step model,” where absorption and emission processes are decoupled, by neglecting the cross products in the development of the square modulus of Eq. (1). We only mention that the full calculation gives much better agreement with the experiment than this approximation, especially for the intensity of the elastic peak compared to the inelastic part. A detailed comparison between the exact calculation and the “two-step” model is beyond the scope of the present work and will be given elsewhere. This comparison for a simpler nonmagnetic case is done in F. M. F. de Groot, Phys. Rev. B 53, 7099 (1996).

39. The effect of the incident bandpass is a Gaussian convolution. The bandpass of the incident beam is accounted for in an exact way as done in L. Braicovich, M. Taguchi, F. Borgatti, G. Ghiringhelli, A. Tagliaferri, N. B. Brookes, T. Uozumi, and A. Kotani, Phys. Rev. B 63, 245 115 (2001).
