Abstract

Real space multiple scattering calculations of the elctronic density of states and x-ray spectra in solids typically scale as the cube of the system and basis set size, and hence are highly demanding computationally. For example, calculations near the Si K-edge require clusters of order 103 atoms with s, p, and d states to converge adequately, and hence ~ 100 inversions of 9000 x 9000 matrices.
