Hi Matt,
I have measured the XAFS spectra by absorption.
I really want to avoid obtain over detailed simulated spectras with a LDOS broadening smaller than core-hole broadening.
So, I want to know the logical criteria to use the eimag in LDOS card.
Thanks, euG

What experimental LDOS data do you have?

If you've measured it by x-ray absorption (which is not exactly the
LDOS), you'll need to include both the experimental energy broadening,

and include the core-hole  broadening.
