Abstract

Complete ab initio real-time cumulant and Bethe-Salpeter-equation calculations accurately capture the detailed satellite structure observed in both the photoemission and x-ray absorption spectra of the transition-metal compounds SrTiO3 and TiO2. Real-space analysis of the excited-state charge- density fluctuations reveals the physical nature of these many-electron excitations that occur in response to the sudden creation of the core hole. The current first-principles development of the many-electron spectral function should be of significant benefit to spectroscopic analytical tools.
