Abstract
We show that, in the fast collision approximation, the scattering oper ator for resonant x-ray scattering can be expressed in terms of simple spin-orbital moment operators M(k) (1, s) of the valence shell involv ed in the resonance. This theory is applicable to the analysis of a br oad range of resonant x-ray elastic and inelastic scattering and absor ption experiments involving rare earth, actinide, and transition eleme nts.
