Recent developments in the theory of angle-resolved photoemission (UPS and XPS) — Jan Minar1, •Juergen Braun2, and Hubert Ebert1 — 1Dep.

Recent developments and improvements in the resolution of angle-resolved photoemission experiments in the UPS as well as in the XPS regime require an improved (or revised) theoretical description of the photoemission process based on the one-step model. In particular, in several earlies studies the measured spectra were described either within a single particle approach based on DFT(LSDA) including matrix elements effects or by sophisticated many-body approaches neglecting these effects. In our analysis [1], we combined for the first time electronic correlations with matrix elements effects to achieve an improved interpretation of photoemission data from Ni and Fe. This has been done by means of a combined fully-relativistic self-consistent LSDA+DMFT approach [2].
In the second part we present the results for angle-resolved photoemission of Ag in the soft X-ray range. In particular k∥ and photon momentum transfer effects, which are often neglected in the high energy photoemission, are discussed in detail.[3]
