Hi Elsa:

As Matt suggested, you want to change E0 in Athena to produce a new chi(k)
spectrum.  You can read the theoretical chi(k) spectrum that you made with
E0=0 into Athena, adjust E0 for the measurement, and then plot in k the data
and theory to see them match at low k.

I encourage you to poke around at the project files that I put at
www.xafs.org/ShellyKelly.  These project files show how to reproduce the
relevant figures in the book chapter.



Good luck,
Shelly
