Dear list, I was looking at the XANES standard for Fe foil from Hephaestus and I noticed that there was a small, curved feature at the edge (7112 eV), another inflection point at 7116.4 eV, and then the edge step at around 7131 eV. My question is: why is the feature at 7112 eV considered as the edge and not as a pre-edge feature? Are they due to fundamentally different phenomena? I would like to understand where this type of feature comes from so as to be consistent in the current paper that I am writing. I have attached the standard, just in case.
