Abstract

The line shapes of the near edge x-ray absorption spectra in 3d transition metal compounds, such as nickel dihalides and NiO show a direct relation with the amount of localization in the valence band states. Decrease in localization gives a reduction of the multiplet structure and an appearance of satellite structure due to core-hole potential effects. The observed multiplet structure can be used to diagnose the ground state. Another example is the near edge structure of magnetic materials using polarized synchrotron radiation. This can be used to determine the local magnetic moments in rare earth magnetic materials.
