title: High-resolution soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy of solids.
abstract: The present research deals with the high-resolution soft x-ray absorption spectra (XAS) of Si, Ce- and Sm- compounds measured at BL25SU of SPring-8. The spectra are compared with theoretical results. The Si 1s spectrum shows good agreement with the calculated empty density of states so far reported. The Ce 3d spectra are very sensitive to the local electronic structure. The Sm 3d XAS of SmS shows clear temperature dependence, which is partly explained by a calculation for Sm2+ ion.
