High-energy, local multiplet excitations of the d-electrons are revealed in our inelastic neutron scattering measurements on the prototype magnetic insulator NiO. These become allowed by the presence of both non-zero crystal field and…

In a recent publication Larson \textit{et al.} reported remarkably clear $d$-$d$ excitations for NiO and CoO measured with x-ray energies well below the transition metal $K$ edge. In this letter we demonstrate that we can obtain an accurate…

We report on the Cu 1s resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) of Cu-O one-dimensional (1D) strongly correlated insulator systems with contrasting atomic arrangements, namely edge-sharing CuGeO3 and corner-sharing Sr2CuO3. Owing to good…

We analyze resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) at the Cu K edge in a typical orbital-ordered compound KCuF3 on the basis of a microscopic theory. Spectral shape and its dependence on polarization direction and momentum transfer of…

The collective spin and charge excitations of doped cuprates and their relationship to superconductivity are not yet fully understood, particularly in the case of the charge excitations. Here, we study the doping-dependent dynamical spin…

The flurry of theoretical and experimental studies following the report of room-temperature superconductivity at ambient pressure in Cu-substituted lead apatite Cu$_x$Pb$_{10-x}$(PO$_4$)$_6$O (`LK99') have explored whether and how this…

We analyze the resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra at the Cu and Ni K edges in La2CuO4 and La2NiO4, respectively. We make use of the Keldysh-Green-function formalism, in which the RIXS intensity is described by a product of…

We report the high resolution resonant inelastic EUV scattering study of quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet KCoF3. By tuning the EUV photon energy to cobalt M23 edge, a complete set of low energy 3d spin-orbital excitations is revealed.…

The magnetic structure of the edge sharing cuprate compound Li2CuO2 has been investigated by means of ab initio electronic structure calculations. The first and second neighbor in-chain magnetic interactions are calculated to be -142 K and…

We identify dd-excitations in the quasi-one dimensional compound Ca$_2$Y$_2$Cu$_5$O$_{10}$ using resonant inelastic x-ray scattering. By tuning across the Cu L$_3$-edge, we observe abrupt shifts in the dd-peak positions as a function of…

We have investigated the 3d orbital excitations in CaCuO2 (CCO), Nd2CuO4 (NCO), and La2CuO4 (LCO) using high-resolution resonant inelastic x-ray scattering. In LCO they behave as well-localized excitations, similarly to several other…

Spin excitations of layered copper oxide show various characteristic features, depending on the carrier concentration. In this study, we conducted inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements on La$_{2-x}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_4$ (LSCO), with $x$…

Using high-resolution extreme ultraviolet resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (EUVRIXS) spectroscopy at Cu M-edge, we observed the doping dependent spectral shifts of inter-orbital (dd) excitations of YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-x) and La_(2-x)Sr_xCuO_4.…

Infinite-layer nickelates are among the most promising cuprate-akin superconductors, although relevant differences from copper oxides have been reported. Here, we present momentum- and polarization-resolved RIXS measurements on chemically…

In this paper detailed neutron scattering measurements of the magnetic excitation spectrum of CuCrO$_2$ in the ordered state below $T_{\rm{N1}}=24.2$ K are presented. The spectra are analyzed using a model Hamiltonian which includes…

We report an Fe $K$-edge resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) study of K$_{0.83}$Fe$_{1.53}$Se$_2$. This material is an insulator, unlike many parent compounds of iron-based superconductors. We found a sharp excitation around 1 eV,…

The role of localized $d$-bands in the dynamical response of Cu is investigated, on the basis of {\em ab initio} pseudopotential calculations. The density-response function is evaluated in both the random-phase approximation (RPA) and a…

Despite significant progress in resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) experiments on cuprates at the Cu L-edge, a theoretical understanding of the cross-section remains incomplete in terms of elementary excitations and the connection…

We investigate the high-energy magnetic excitation spectrum of the high-$T_c$ cuprate superconductor Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+\delta}$ (Bi-2212) using Cu $L_3$ edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS). Broad, dispersive magnetic…

In existing theoretical approaches to core-level excitations of transition-metal ions in solids relaxation and polarization effects due to the inner core hole are often ignored or described phenomenologically. Here we set up an ab initio…
