Abstract = {{We demonstrate that combining standing wave (SW) excitation with
   resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) can lead to depth resolution
   and interface sensitivity for studying orbital and magnetic excitations
   in correlated oxide heterostructures. SW-RIXS has been applied to
   multilayer heterostructures consisting of a superconductor
   La1.85Sr0.15CuO4 (LSCO) and a half-metallic ferromagnet La0.67Sr0.33MnO3
   (LSMO). Easily observable SW effects on the RIXS excitations were found
   in these LSCO/LSMO multilayers. In addition, we observe different depth
   distribution of the RIXS excitations. The magnetic excitations are found
   to arise from the LSCO/LSMO interfaces, and there is also a suggestion
   that one of the dd excitations comes from the interfaces. SW-RIXS
   measurements of correlated-oxide and other multilayer heterostructures
   should provide unique layer-resolved insights concerning their orbital
   and magnetic excitations, as well as a challenge for RIXS theory to
   specifically deal with interface effects.}},
