Thanks to everyone for all the previous responses to my emails, I've learned a lot in the few weeks I've been on this list! I was hoping to build off of the last point Bruce made in message 3 below by asking another question. I am fitting a CeO2 reference from paths generated by feff from a cif file. Since this is my starting point, I made SO2 the same for every path (and used the coordination numbers from the cif file). If I am generating what looks to be a reasonable fit, but my SO2 is in the 0.55-0.7 range, what is my fit trying to tell me? Am I doing something wrong in my initial background subtraction in Athena?
I'm asking about the background subtraction because I recently discovered that there is a CeO2 reference provided in Hephaestus. I exported the data, and tried to fit it in Artemis using a similar methodology I used for my own sample, and I got an even lower SO2. So I don't think the small SO2 value is an artifact of the way the experiment was run (although I might be wrong, I wasn't present when the data was actually collected). The observed difference seems real because the magnitude of the signal in E-space, k-space, and R-space is lower for the Hephaestus sample compared to my experimental sample (see attached image... One note, I'm not sure why the signals are off set in the Energy plot. The Eo's are the same, and if I plot the spectra together in E-space alone, they are not offset. Maybe a bug?).
