Abstract
We report a study of electronic excitations in manganites exhibiting a range of ground states, using resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) at the Mn edge. Excitations with temperature dependent changes correlated with the magnetism were observed as high as 10 eV. By calculating Wannier functions, and finite- response functions, we associate this dependence with intersite excitations. The calculated dynamical structure factor is found to be similar to the RIXS spectra.
