A first-principles theory of resonant magnetic scattering of x rays is presented. The scattering amplitudes are calculated using a standard time-dependent perturbation theory to second order in the electron-photon interaction vertex. In order to calculate the cross section reliably an accurate description of the electronic states in the material under investigation is required and this is provided by the density functional theory (DFT) employing the Local Spin Density Approximation combined with the self-interaction corrections (SIC-LSD). The magnetic x-ray resonant scattering (MXRS) theory has been implemented in the framework of the relativistic spin-polarized LMTO-ASA band structure calculation method. The theory is illustrated with an application to ferromagnetic praseodymium. It is shown that the theory quantitatively reproduces the dependence on the spin and orbital magnetic moments originally predicted qualitatively (Blume, J. Appl. Phys, {bf 57}, 3615 (1985)) and yields results that can be compared directly with experiment.

The electronic structures of several actinide solid systems are calculated using the self-interaction corrected local spin density approximation. Within this scheme the $5f$ electron manifold is considered to consist of both localized and delocalized
states, and by varying their relative proportions the energetically most favourable (groundstate) configuration can be established. Specifically, we discuss elemental Pu in its $delta$-phase, PuO$_2$ and the effects of addition of oxygen, the series of actinide monopnictides and monochalcogenides, and the UX$_3$, X= Rh, Pd, Pt, Au, intermetallic series.
We introduce a first principles approach to determine the strength of the electronic correlations based on the fully self consistent GW approximation. The approach provides a seamless interface with dynamical mean field theory, and gives good results
for well studied correlated materials such as NiO. Applied to the recently discovered iron arsenide materials, it accounts for the noticeable correlation features observed in optics and photoemission while explaining the absence of visible satellites in X-ray absorption experiments and other high energy spectroscopies.
X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements in Pr0.5Ca0.5CoO3 were performed at the Pr M4,5, Pr L3, and Ca L2,3 absorption edges as a function of temperature below 300 K. Ca spectra show no changes down to 10 K while a noticeable thermally dependent e
volution takes place at the Pr edges across the metal-insulator transition. Spectral changes are analyzed by different methods, including multiple scattering simulations, which provide quantitative details on an electron loss at Pr 4f orbitals. We conclude that in the insulating phase a fraction [15(+5)%] of Pr3+ undergoes a further oxidation to adopt a hybridized configuration composed of an admixture of atomic-like 4f1 states (Pr4+) and f- symmetry states on the O 2p valence band (Pr3+L states) indicative of a strong 4f- 2p interaction.
In this work we present a model for the determination of the interaction energy for triplet and singlet states in atoms with incomplete filled shells. Our model includes the modification of the Coulombs law by the interaction between the magnetic mom
ents of the electrons and a Heisenberg term. We find that the energy of the triplet state is lower than the energy of the singlet state. We calculate the interaction energy between the electrons from the adjacent atoms in fcc and bcc lattices and we find that the minimum interaction energy is attained for the triplet state. The result is presented for the interaction between the electrons of the first coordination group. The interaction energy which aligns the spins is used to evaluate the Curie temperature in a mean field model. Compared to previous models, our simple model fits the experimental data.
A well-known property of aromatic molecules is their highly anisotropic response to the presence of an external magnetic field: the component of their magnetic susceptibility parallel to the field is generally much larger than the remaining in-plane
components. This intriguing phenomenon is rationalized as a consequence of the delocalization of the itinerant electrons that populate the aromatic ring. In this work, we revisit the magnetism of aromatic molecules and propose an extended Hubbard model for the electrons in the aromatic ring that takes into account the interaction between them and the bonding electrons. We show that the bonding electrons play an important and overlooked role: they mediate an effective, attractive momentum-momentum interaction between the itinerant electrons, which promotes a strong enhancement in the magnetic response of the aromatic ring. For the particular case of benzene, we show that the experimentally observed magnetic anisotropy is recovered with realistic values of the coupling constants.
