1 Introduction Thomson scattering describes the quasi-elastic scattering of electromagnetic radiation by charged particles, mainly electrons. For plasmas, it allows for essential and non-invasive insight into basic properties, including electron temperature, density, and ionization states.

Abstract We study ab initio approaches for calculating x-ray Thomson scattering spectra from density functional theory molecular dynamics simulations based on a modified Chihara formula that expresses the inelastic contribution in terms of the dielectric function.
