All-Electron Many-Body Approach to X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy — •Christian Vorwerk, Caterina Cocchi, and Claudia Draxl — Institut für Physik, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, 12489 Berlin, Germany

We present an all-electron approach of the many-body perturbation theory to describe X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) in solid-state materials. In this formalism, the electron-hole interaction is explicitely included by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation. A fully relativistic description of core states, as implemented in the all-electron full-potential code exciting[1], enables the explicit treatment of the effects of spin-orbit coupling in the spectra. We investigate the XAS for prototypical systems, such as TiO2 and MgO, considering excitations from oxygen K and metal L edges. Our results, in good agreement with experiments, allow us to gain insight into the nature of the core-level excitations of these materials.
