  We show that in ferromagnetic (FM)/normal metal (NM) bilayers the dynamic
coupling at the interface transfers an additional magnetic relaxation from the
heavily damped motion of the conduction electron spins in the NM layer to the
FM spins. While the FM relaxation rates due to two-magnon scattering and spin
pumping decrease rapidly with increasing FM film thickness, the damping due to
the dynamic coupling does not depend on the FM film thickness. The proposed
mechanism explains the very large broadening of ferromagnetic resonance lines
in thick films of yttrium iron garnet after deposition of a Pt layer.
