Excitation pathways in resonant inelastic x-ray scattering of solids

Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) is a powerful spectroscopic technique that offers an elemental- and orbital-selective probe of the electronic excitations over a huge energy range. We present a many-body approach to determine RIXS spectra in solids, yielding an intuitive expression for the...
