I am familiar with the software and apologies I did mean Artemis in terms of fitting and understand that there is no pump probe button.
To be clearer, can I make the excited state and ground state models in Artemis, take the data and difference (which can be done in Athena) and use that as a direct comparison, perhaps as you would with XANES data? I understand my data but I do not understand the best method to try get at least a first shell fit from the EXAFS region, collected by taking the difference of the ground state from the excited state, and can this be done in anyway via Artemis through some data analysis.

I'm a little unsure in terms of trying to fit the difference EXAFS and is it possible via Athena? So far I model the EXAFS of the excited state and take away from the ground state model and compare visually. The only way I can think is to work out the % conversion and add that % of laser off back to the difference data in order to get the real EXAFS of the excited state, which can be fitted through Athena. But this is really difficult and probably inaccurate?
