Figure 2.

An illustration of the L3-edge RIXS process for a 5d5 iridate. Orbital states with (without) an active hole are in full colour (translucent). Incident (scattered) X-ray are shown as blue (red) wavy arrows. The initial iso-spin down state is flipped to an up state via the spin–orbit coupling in the intermediate state.
