Exploring itinerant states in divalent hexaborides using rare-earth $L$ edge resonant inelastic X-ray scattering

Donal Sheets, Vincent Flynn, Jungho Kim +10

We present a study of resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra collected at the rare-earth $L$ edges of divalent hexaborides YbB${}_6$ and EuB${}_6$. In both systems, RIXS-ac…
