[Ifeffit] background fitting functions in Artemis

7 Jul 2010

      Hello all,

If a background is difficult to remove due to short paths lengths, can a
background fitting be used in the Artemis fit?  I have a large data
range giving near two times the ind points even when including the
background function.  After fitting the data, it gave a number of
correlations some of which are negative.  The parameters give reasonable
values and uncertainties and I feel confident about the model.  I know
the fit is not great but can I use this as the starting point or is the
background just giving me a large fudge factor?

Thank you,

Chris Patridge
