Xclaim (x-ray core level atomic multiplets) is a graphical interface for the calculation of core-hole spectroscopy and ground state properties within a charge-transfer multiplet model taking into account a many-body hamiltonian with Coulomb, spin-orbit, crystal-field, and hybridization interactions. Using Hartree-Fock estimates for the Coulomb and spin-orbit interactions and ligand field parameters (crystal-field, hybridization and charge-transfer energy) the program can calculate x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), photoemission spectrospcy (PES) and inverse photoemission (IPES) for d- and f-valence metals and different absorption edges. The program runs in Linux, Windows and MacOS platforms.

While new light sources allow for unprecedented resolution in experiments with X-rays, a theoretical understanding of the scattering cross-section lacks closure. In the particular case of strongly correlated electron systems, numerical techniques are quite limited, since conventional approaches rely on calculating a response function (Kramers-Heisenberg formula) that is obtained from a time-dependent perturbative analysis of scattering processes. This requires a knowledge of a full set of eigenstates in order to account for all intermediate processes away from equilibrium, limiting the applicability to small tractable systems. In this work, we present an alternative paradigm allowing to explicitly solving the time-dependent Schrodinger equation without the limitations of perturbation theory, a faithful simulation of all scattering processes taking place in actual experiments. We introduce the formalism and an application to Mott insulating Hubbard chains using the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group method, which does not require a priory knowledge of the eigenstates and thus, can be applied to very large systems with dozens of orbitals. Away from the ultra short lifetime limit we find signatures of spectral weight at low energies that can be explained in terms of gapless multi-spinon excitations. Our approach can readily be applied to systems out of equilibrium without modification.
Most currently used approximations for the one-particle Greens function G in the framework of many-body perturbation theory, such as Hedins GW approximation or the cumulant GW+C approach, are based on a linear response approximation for the screened interaction W. The extent to which such a hypothesis is valid and ways to go beyond have been explored only very little. Here we show how to derive a cumulant Greens function beyond linear-response from the equation of motion of the Greens function in a functional derivative formulation. The results can be written in a compact form, which opens the possibility to calculate the corrections in a first principles framework using time-dependent density functional theory. In order to illustrate the potential importance of the corrections, numerical results are presented for a model system with a core level and two valence orbitals.
We introduce a graphical user interface for constructing arbitrary tensor networks and specifying common operations like contractions or splitting, denoted GuiTeNet. Tensors are represented as nodes with attached legs, corresponding to the ordered dimensions of the tensor. GuiTeNet visualizes the current network, and instantly generates Python/NumPy source code for the hitherto sequence of user actions. Support for additional programming languages is planned for the future. We discuss the elementary operations on tensor networks used by GuiTeNet, together with high-level optimization strategies. The software runs directly in web browsers and is available online at http://guitenet.org.
The relativistic Mott insulator Sr2IrO4 driven by large spin-orbit interaction is known for the Jeff = 1/2 antiferromagnetic state which closely resembles the electronic structure of parent compounds of superconducting cuprates. Here, we report the realization of hole-doped Sr2IrO4 by means of interfacial charge transfer in Sr2IrO4/LaNiO3 heterostructures. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy on Ir 4f edge along with the X-ray absorption spectroscopy at Ni L2 edge confirmed that 5d electrons from Ir sites are transferred onto Ni sites, leading to markedly electronic reconstruction at the interface. Although the Sr2IrO4/LaNiO3 heterostructure remains non-metallic, we reveal that the transport behavior is no longer described by the Mott variable range hopping mode, but by the Efros-Shklovskii model. These findings highlight a powerful utility of interfaces to realize emerging electronic states of the Ruddlesden-Popper phases of Ir-based oxides.
An easily accessible method is presented that permits to calculate spectra involving atomic multiplets relevant to X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) and Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (RIXS) experiments. We present specific examples and compare the calculated spectra with available experimental data
