Core-Level X-Ray Spectroscopy of Infinite-Layer Nickelate: LDA+DMFT Study

Motivated by recent core-level x-ray photoemission spectroscopy, x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) experiments for the newly discovered superconducting infinite-layer nickelate, we investigate the core-level spectra of the parent compounds NdNiO_{2}...
