Simulations of X-ray Spectra using FEFF9 and OCEAN — •John Rehr — University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA

There has been dramatic recent progress in the theory of x-ray spectra. This spectra probes excited state properties of a system, and thus requires theoretical treatments beyond the independent particle approximation. Here we discuss two complementary approaches based on the GW/BSE method. First is a real-space Green*s function approach, as implemented in the FEFF9 code [1]. FEFF9 has improved treatments of many-body effects and can also include LDA+U corrections. Second, is a new k-space approach implemented in the GW/BSE code OCEAN (Obtaining Core Excitation using ABINIT and NBSE)[2]. OCEAN also includes intra-atomic coulomb interactions and can also treat multiplet effects. FEFF9 and OCEAN have complementary spectral ranges. However, the combination is applicable from the UV-VIS to x-ray energies. These two approaches are illustrated with applications to several core-level specra including XAS and RIXS.
