[Ifeffit] how to reduce the core-hole lifetime broadening in feff8.2

[John J. Rehr]

Hi Tony,

   Following Bruce's suggestion, you can reduce the core-hole broadening
by making Vi negative. When you do this, note that the amount of reduction
is limited by the core-hole broadening (i.e.,  the variable Gam_ch which
is printed out in the header to xmu.dat or  chi.dat).  Thus for a typical
case (Al) where Gam_ch=3.763E-01, you can set Vi= -0.018 in the EXCHANGE
or CORRECTIONS cardds.
