[Ifeffit] Origin of noise in Ag K-Edge

[Robert Gordon]

Hi Sebastian,

Is I0 the same for all measurements? Mu being about the same jump just 
means that about
the same amount of absorber is in the beam. It doesn't rule out an 
instrumentation issue.

Start by checking I0, then It. Identify where the noise is manifesting.
