Over the last few years, characterizing the nature of the spin dynamics
65

at the interface has garnered much attention.

A key contribution in this effort is the generalization of the standard theoretical approach
67
- of calculating the nonlocal magnetoresistance with and without the magnetic field
68
- \cite {PhysRevB.80.214427 , PhysRevB.67.052409 }

- to include the contact resistance.

The approach relies on numerically solving the Bloch equation

to generate Hanle precession curves and then fitting observed data.

- In this paper, we present the closed form expression for the precession curves
73
- and analytically discuss the various parameters regimes that show qualitatively different behaviors.

which were previously obtained by numerical simulations.
