A couple questions about linear combination fitting in Athena: 1. There is the option of floating an E0 for the standards, is there any way to restrict how much it floats, ie. constrain it to +/-0.4eV shifts during fitting? 2. If I am fitting normalized u(E), and only care about the XANES region at this point, is perfecting background removal needed? (I have, of course, carefully checked the pre-edge and normalization range). Thank you!
