[Ifeffit] Correction for self absorption in fluorescence mode XAFS data

[sumitk at barc.gov.in]

Hi,
I am analyzing a Eu-L3 edge XAFS data measured in fluorescence mode. My
question is regarding the appropriateness of the self absorption
correction of the data.
I am aware that by supplying chemical formula along with other requisite
informations (angle, etc.) I can execute the self absorption correction in
Athena. Also, by comparing data measured in transmission and fluorescence
modes the correction can be achieved. I have only six scans of
fluorescence mode measurement and by applying the correction to these
scans in Athena, I have observed enhanced amplitude in mu(E) data. I am
not able to see how to check the appropriate of correction. An Athena file
is attached to look into.
Expecting the community to help,
Sumit
