While new light sources allow for unprecedented resolution in experiments with X-rays, a theoretical understanding of the scattering cross-section is lacking. 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 perturbative analysis of scattering processes in the frequency domain. 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, recasting the problem in the time domain and explicitly solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation without the limitations of perturbation theory: a faithful simulation of the scattering processes taking place in actual experiments, including photons and core electrons. We show how this approach can yield the full time and momentum resolved Resonant Inelastic X-Ray Scattering (RIXS) spectrum of strongly interacting many-body systems. We demonstrate the formalism with 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 can solve very large systems with dozens of orbitals. This approach can readily be applied to systems out of equilibrium without modification and generalized to other spectroscopies.

Elastic Scattering Susceptibility of the High Temperature Superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x: A Comparison between Real and Momentum Space Photoemission Spectroscopies
通过计算角分辨光电子能谱(ARPES)测量的单粒子谱函数A(k,ω)的自相关性,计算了Bi 2Sr 2CaCu 2 O 8 +x的联合态密度(JDOS).这些结果进行了比较与傅立叶变换(FT)电导调制测量的扫描隧道显微镜(STM)。两个实验探针之间的良好协议被发现为两个不同的掺杂值检查。此外,通过将FT-STM结果与不同光子偏振态的自相关ARPES谱进行比较,对STM矩阵元的形式有了新的认识。这为隧道数据中未解之谜提供了新的线索。
