Description
Transient X-ray near-edge absorption spectroscopy (XANES) and high harmonic generation (HHG) are powerful techniques to study structural and dynamical properties of materials. From the first-principles modelling perspective they present several challenges such as accessing core electrons, capturing correlations and excitons and describing the coupling to phonons. Overcoming these challenges for/with TDDFT and being able to unveil the physics behind experiments in this area will be the main focus of the project that we will develop within the Smart-X network.
