[0104] As can be seen from the above embodiments, this first-principles X-ray Thomson scattering spectroscopy simulation method decomposes the scattering spectrum of warm-dense materials into elastic and inelastic components based on quantum perturbation theory. The calculation of the elastic component is achieved through first-principles molecular dynamics and finite-temperature density functional theory, while the calculation of the inelastic component is achieved through perturbation formulas of time-dependent density functional theory. The calculated elastic and inelastic components are then integrated to obtain the complete X-ray Thomson scattering spectrum of the warm-dense material. It uses first-principles to perform a complete and accurate simulation of the internal environment of the warm-dense material, ensuring that the final simulated X-ray Thomson scattering spectrum truly reflects the internal environment of the warm-dense material. This facilitates accurate spectral interpretation of the scattering spectrum obtained from actual measurements and improves the reliability of research on warm-dense materials.
