Dear all,I am trying to extract the % Ce(III) from some CeO2 nanoparticle XAS data. I have been using moved the peak fitting function in Athena to model the XANES with an arctan background function and a series of gaussians.Looking through the literature I haven't seen too many specifics to using this approach (rationale for choosing the widths of peaks or how to define the background function). Similarly, doesn't seem to be much rationale for choosing a 4 vs 5 peak fit for the XANES.My main question is then...1) Is there a rational for picking the background function, specifically the height and width (can I let the height vary or should I be keeping a constant arctan through all samples)?Any advice is greatly appreciated!Stephanie
