Abstract
The electron-core-hole interaction is critical for proper interpretation of core-level spectroscopies commonly used as structural tools in materials' science. Resonant Auger- electron spectroscopy can uniquely identify exciton, shake, and charge-transfer processes that result from the sudden creation of the core hole in both x-ray absorption and photoemission spectra. Experimental results from the transition-metal compounds SrTiO3 and MoS2 are compared to ab initio Bethe-Salpeter-equation and time-dependent density-functional-theory calculations of the cumulant of the core-hole Green's function for the photoemission and x-ray-absorption spectra. Excited-state charge densities are also calculated and reflect the materials' solid- state electronic structure; they reveal both the loss of translational symmetry due to the core hole and the breakdown of the strict monopole selection rules of the sudden approximation.Citation
