New AI method infers Hamiltonian parameters from RIXS spectroscopy data

Researchers have applied simulation-based inference, utilizing a vision transformer encoder, to analyze resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectroscopy data. This novel approach efficiently restricts the prior and estimates joint densities, enabling the inference of full posteriors for Hamiltonian parameters in two Ni$^{2+}$ compounds: NiPS$_3$ and K$_2$NiF$_4$. The method successfully recovered parameter correlations and accurately matched observed spectra, unlocking new analytical capabilities such as nuisance-marginalized uncertainty quantification and multi-measurement posterior fusion.
