SUMMARY:Probing and structures with X-ray
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Anirudh Chandrasekaran\, Boston University\nHosted by
	: Eric Boyers\n\nPart of the Graduate Student Council Events.\n\nPart of th
	e student seminar series. A recording will be posted here after the seminar
	.\n\nIn this talk I will discuss a recent work of ours\, in which we propos
	e the use of resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) to identify and cha
	racterize distinct geometric signatures in band structures of nodal point s
	emimetals. RIXS is a one photon in - one photon process which imparts both 
	energy and momentum to the material\, effectively causing particle hole exc
	itations across the Fermi level. By connecting the features of the RIXS cro
	ss section to properties of the band structure\, we can falsify models and 
	obtain a fit for low energy theory parameters. This is of particular signif
	icance now\, given the improved RIXS resolution and understanding of the RI
	XS spectrum\, as shown in our work. Keeping in my mind the mostly student a
	udience\, I will briefly review band theory and x-ray scattering before pre
	senting our results.
