Signatures of multiple charge excitations in resonant inelastic x-ray scattering spectra of metals
Abstract
In this work, we study how multiple charge excitations appear in the resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra of metals. Typically, the focus is upon single excitations in the problem, the plasmons and electron-hole pairs, while the multiexcitation processes are neglected. However, at small momentum transfer the multiexcitation contributions may dominate the signal and one needs to understand how to interpret the data in such cases. In particular, we demonstrate how to “decode” the total multiexcitation intensity and extract the plasmon dispersion. Furthermore, while our calculations are based on the random phase approximation for jellium, which does not allow us to obtain quantitatively precise results in the entire region of parameters, we expect them to capture semiqualitatively all features expected for charged Fermi-liquid states, including universal and singular properties of the RIXS spectra.
