| Summary:

We study spin pumping into an anisotropic Dirac electron system induced by
microwave irradiation to an adjacent ferromagnetic insulator theoretically. We
formulate the Gilbert damping enhancement due to the spin current flowing into
the Dirac electron system using second-order perturbation with respect to the
interfacial exchange coupling. As an illustration, we consider the anisotropic
Dirac system realized in bismuth to show that the Gilbert damping varies
according to the magnetization direction in the ferromagnetic insulator. Our
results indicate that this setup can provide helpful information on the
anisotropy of the Dirac electron system.
