The $\Delta$-Self-Consistent-Field ($\Delta$SCF) method has been established as an accurate and computationally efficient approach for calculating absolute core electron binding energies for light elements up to chlorine, but relatively…

For the computational prediction of core electron binding energies in solids, two distinct kinds of modelling strategies have been pursued: the $\Delta$-Self-Consistent-Field method based on density functional theory (DFT), and the GW…

The $\Delta$-Self-Consistent-Field ($\Delta$SCF) method permits calculations of core electron binding energies in materials and molecules at a modest computational cost. However, it has been reported that whilst this method works well for…

Core-electron x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is a powerful technique for studying the electronic structure and chemical composition of molecules, solids and surfaces. However, the interpretation of measured spectra and the assignment of…

A general method is presented to calculate absolute binding energies of core levels in metals and insulators, based on a penalty functional and an exact Coulomb cutoff method in a framework of the density functional theory. The spurious…

Core-level X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) is often used to study the surfaces of heterogeneous copper-based catalysts, but the interpretation of measured spectra, in particular the assignment of peaks to adsorbed species, can be…

We report the core binding energies of K-edge and L-edge transitions in simple semiconducting and insulating solids using periodic equation-of-motion coupled-cluster theory with single and double excitations (EOM-CCSD). In our all-electron…

We present a modification of the $\Delta$SCF method of calculating energies of excited states, in order to make it applicable to resonance calculations of molecules adsorbed on metal surfaces, where the molecular orbitals are highly…

The electron localization function (ELF) is a universal measure of electron localization that allows for, e.g., an effective characterization of physical bonds in molecular and solid state systems. In the context of the widely used…

Recent studies of core-level X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra of silicene on ZrB$_2$(0001) were found to be inconsistent with the density of states (DOS) of a planar-like structure that has been proposed as the ground state by…

Electronic stopping power in the \(\mathrm{keV/\AA}\) range is accurately calculated from first principles. The energy loss to electrons in self-irradiated nickel, a paradigmatic transition metal, using real-time time-dependent density…

Density functional theory (DFT) is a widespread and effective tool in electronic structure calculations for ground-state electron systems. Its success has prompted exploration into the use of DFT for non-collective excited states. The delta…

Employing a local formula for the electron-electron interaction energy, we derive a self-consistent approximation for the total energy of a general $N$-electron system. Our scheme works as a local variant of the Thomas-Fermi approximation…

The ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^2)$ coefficient of the energy-energy correlation function (EEC) has been calculated by four groups with differing results. This discrepancy has lead to some confusion over how to measure the strong coupling constant…

Optical properties of multilayer semi-conductor nano-emitters are crucially dependent on the relative energy levelsof their different components. For core/shell quantum dots, the relative energy difference between conduction bandedge of…
