Magnetic resonance techniques at frequencies of 9.4, 34, 110, and 219 GHz were used to investigate the magnetism of the recently discovered ferromagnetic superconducting system RuSr{sub 2}RECu{sub 2}O{sub 8} (RE=Eu, Gd). One absorption is observed in both compounds below the magnetic ordering temperature, T{sub M}{similar_to}135 K, and can be ascribed to the ferromagnetic resonance of the ordered Ru ions. The resonance field of this absorption is frequency dependent and is well described assuming an in-plane ferromagnetic component with strong out-of-plane (H{sub z}) and weak in-plane (H{sub x}) anisotropy fields. We have derived almost the same anisotropy fields for both compounds at 70 K ({l_angle}H{sub z}{r_angle}{similar_to}250 kOe and {l_angle}H{sub x}{r_angle}{similar_to}165 Oe). Another absorption is observed only in the Gd compound and arises from the paramagnetic resonance of the Gd{sup 3+} ions. Below T{sub M} the Gd{sup 3+} signal shifts from g=2 evidencing the appearance of a homogeneous internal field, H{sub i,Gd}, that is frequency (and hence field) dependent. This variation is probably due to the nonsaturated nature of the Ru lattice. Below 10 K there is an additional shift of the Gd{sup 3+} line arising from the Gd dipole-dipole interaction. {copyright} 2001 American Institute of Physics.
