Abstract
Element- and site-specific resonant inelastic x-ray scattering spectroscopy (RIXS) is employed to investigate electron correlation effects in [Formula presented]. In contrast to single photon techniques, RIXS at the vanadium [Formula presented] edge is able to probe [Formula presented] transitions between V [Formula presented]-bands. A sharp energy loss feature is observed at [Formula presented], which is well reproduced by a model calculation including correlation effects. The calculation identifies the loss feature as excitation between the lower and upper Hubbard bands and permits an accurate determination of the Hubbard interaction term [Formula presented].
