Teacher: Fulvio Parmigiani

Program: The lectures are thought for graduate students in material science and engineering. The aim is to provide a clear and possibly simple background of some advanced spectroscopies of solids suitable for observing low energy interactions in condensed matter. The program starts with some basic classical concepts on the matter-radiation interaction leading to the description of absorption and scattering processes. The lectures will cover fundamental spectroscopic concepts applied to the study magnetic interactions and elementary excitations in solids and as these interactions and excitations can be detected by X-ray Magnetic Cicular Dichroism (XMCD), X-ray Magnetic Linear Dichroism (XMLD), non-linear based spectroscopies, such as Raman and Resonant Inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) and Angle Resolved Photoelectron Spectroscopy (ARPES).
