Hi Dr. Ravel,

I am a graduate student in Nuclear Engineering at Penn State. I study corrosion of Zr-based alloys using microbeam XANES at the APS. For my linear combination fitting of iron XANES spectra I have used your iron foil standard that is available through the Hephaestus program. I was wondering if there was a paper or work I could cite to reference this standard.

Aditya, I am CCing my answer to the Ifeffit mailing list. This seems like a general enough question that it should go onto the list. The advice I have given others who have asked this question is to state that the standard is distributed with the Demeter software package and to use the standard citation for the software.
