Auger spectroscopy of strongly correlated systems: present status and future trends

摘要

We review the Cini-Sawatzky approach to the line shape analysis of Auger CVVtransitions, in its basic and original formulation. Then, several extensions ofthe theory are reviewed, namely the inclusion spin-orbit coupling,dynamical/plasmon screening, overlap effects, off-site interactions, thetreatment of disorder and the formulation for partially filled bands. Weconclude by highlighting what we consider to be future directions in the field.
