Resonant-magnetic x-ray scattering (RMXS) near the vanadium $L_{2,3}$-absorption edges has been used to investigate the low temperature magnetic structure of high quality \bvs\ single crystals. Below $T_N$ = 31 K, the strong resonance…
We report a comprehensive resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) study of various iridate materials focusing on core-level excitations and transitions between crystal-field split d-levels. The 2p core hole created at the Ir $L_3$…
We use Ru $L_3$-edge (2838.5 eV) resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) to quantify the electronic structure of Ca$_2$RuO$_4$, a layered $4d$-electron compound that exhibits a correlation-driven metal-insulator transition and…
Effective symmetry-based transition operators for resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) are derived that show how the scattering between different states depends on the polarization of the incoming and outgoing X-rays. In spherical…
Resonant (elastic) soft x-ray scattering (RSXS) offers a unique element, site, and valence specific probe to study spatial modulations of charge, spin, and orbital degrees of freedom in solids on the nanoscopic length scale. It cannot only…
Understanding quantum materials -- solids in which quantum-mechanical interactions among constituent electrons yield a great variety of novel emergent phenomena -- is a forefront challenge in modern condensed matter physics. This goal has…

Angle-resolved soft x-ray measurements made at the boron K-edge in single crystal MgB2 provide new insights into the B-2p local partial density of both unoccupied and occupied band states. The strong variation of absorption with incident…
While key attention in transition-metal oxides is usually devoted to the $d$ states of the transition-metal ion, the O$(2p)$ states usually also carry important physics. We here examine these $p$ states in representatives of the novel…
I present a tractable theory for the Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (RIXS) spectral function of magnons. The low-energy transition operator is written as a product of local spin operators times fundamental x-ray absorption spectra.…
