//! Validation against Mosendz et al., PRL **104**, 046601 (2010).
//!
//! Quantitative spin pumping measurement in Permalloy/Platinum (Py/Pt) bilayers
//! at ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). The Mosendz paper was the first systematic
//! quantitative comparison of the inverse spin Hall voltage `V_ISHE` against
//! spin-pumping theory, with the following landmark claims:
//!
//! 1. **Pt thickness scaling.** `V_ISHE(t_Pt)` follows the standard
//!    spin-diffusion law
//!
//!    `V_ISHE(t_Pt) ∝ tanh( t_Pt / (2 λ_sf) )`,
//!
//!    where `λ_sf ≈ 7–10 nm` for Pt. The curve saturates beyond `t_Pt ≳ 3 λ_sf`,
//!    matching the embedded reference table [`V_ISHE_UV`].
//! 2. **Refined Pt spin Hall angle.** Including spin back-flow and the
//!    spin-mixing conductance, the analysis gives `θ_SH ≈ 0.013`. This is
//!    `~3×` larger than the Saitoh 2006 raw value (`0.0037`) but still well
//!    below the modern consensus `0.06–0.13`. We expose the Mosendz value as
//!    [`THETA_SH_MOSENDZ`].
//! 3. **Effective spin-mixing conductance.** For Py/Pt, the analysis yields
//!    `g↑↓_eff ≈ 2.1 × 10¹⁹ m⁻²` ([`G_MIX_REFERENCE`]).
//! 4. **Linewidth enhancement from spin pumping.** The Gilbert damping picks
//!    up an additional contribution
//!
//!    `Δα_eff = (γ ℏ g↑↓_eff) / (4π M_s t_F)`,
//!
//!    inversely proportional to the ferromagnet thickness `t_F`. This is the
//!    classical Tserkovnyak prediction; Mosendz showed quantitative agreement
//!    with the measured linewidth increase.
//!
//! The validation harness wraps an [`InverseSpinHall`] converter (Pt preset)
//! together with a Permalloy/Pt [`SpinInterface`] preset, and exposes three
//! validation methods plus access to the embedded reference data.
//!
//! # Caveats
//!
//! - The embedded `V_ISHE_UV` curve is normalised to FMR power; absolute
//!   voltages depend strongly on sample geometry and pumping amplitude, so the
//!   validation rescales the simulated curve to match the reference at the
//!   thickest-Pt point before computing relative errors. The qualitative
//!   `tanh`-saturation shape is what is being tested.
//! - The default tolerance window used in the test suite is 30 %, matching the
//!   broader Phase-3 validation convention.
