TL;DR: A giant transfer of spectral weight with distinct features that require an explanation which goes beyond the Peierls transition model as well as the standard single-band Hubbard model is observed.

TL;DR: In this article, a combined study of the electronic structure of the superconducting skutterudite derivative SrPt4Ge12 by means of x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and full-potential band structure calculations including an analysis of the chemical bonding is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the electronic structure of GdBaCo2O5.5 was investigated using soft x-ray absorption and photo-electron spectroscopy and it was found that half of the Co3+ ions at the octahedral sites are in the low spin (LS) and the other half in the high spin (HS) state.

TL;DR: In this article, the electronic structure of the equiatomic intermetallics using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was investigated, and the experimental results were compared with band structure calculations, and they found good agreement provided that the spin-orbit interaction in the Au an $\mathrm{Ag}\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}d$ bands is included and correlation effects in an open $4f$ shell are accounted for.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the efficiency and limits of polarization dependent hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES) in order to establish how well this method can be used to unravel quantitatively the contributions of the orbitals forming the valence band of solids.
