Abstract = {{In CaIrO3, electronic correlation, spin-orbit coupling, and tetragonal
   crystal field splitting are predicted to be of comparable strength.
   However, the nature of its ground state is still an object of debate,
   with contradictory experimental and theoretical results. We probe the
   ground state of CaIrO3 and assess the effective tetragonal crystal field
   splitting and spin-orbit coupling at play in this system by means of
   resonant inelastic x-ray scattering. We conclude that insulating CaIrO3
   is not a j(eff) = 1/2 iridate and discuss the consequences of our
   finding to the interpretation of previous experiments. In particular, we
   clarify how the Mott insulating state in iridates can be readily
   extended beyond the j(eff) = 1/2 ground state.}},
