Abstract = {{Spin excitations in the overdoped high temperature superconductors
   Tl2Ba2CuO6+delta and (Bi,Pb)(2)(Sr,La)(2)CuO6+delta were investigated by
   resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) as functions of doping and
   detuning of the incoming photon energy above the Cu-L-3 absorption peak.
   The RIXS spectra at optimal doping are dominated by a paramagnon feature
   with peak energy independent of photon energy, similar to prior results
   on underdoped cuprates. Beyond optimal doping, the RIXS data indicate a
   sharp crossover to a regime with a strong contribution from incoherent
   particle-hole excitations whose maximum shows a fluorescencelike shift
   upon detuning. The spectra of both compound families are closely
   similar, and their salient features are reproduced by
   exact-diagonalization calculations of the single-band Hubbard model on a
   finite cluster. The results are discussed in the light of recent
   transport experiments indicating a quantum phase transition near optimal
   doping.}},
