X-ray spectroscopy: New theoretical insights have enabled integration of the spectral function and ground-state properties, opening the field of X-ray Magnetic Dichroism (XMD), which allows the study of magnetic materials with polarized x-rays, as well as second order spectroscopies, such as Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (RIXS) and polarized and spin-resolved resonant photoemission. Topics of study include:
Strong electron correlations and magnetism: As a result of direct transitions into the valence shell, x-ray spectroscopy offers a direct probe into the microscopic behavior of strongly correlated and magnetic systems. Although a successful interpretation of spectroscopy can lead to deeper insights into these materials, it often requires detailed modeling of complex materials and phenomena. Our studies in this area include:
