Two things:
1. This is a volunteer community. Asking us to download a massive file
and parse through it to find a data file is not a reasonable request.
Pick an example and attach it as a txt file (energy, mu(E) or E, I0, IF
). In fact, since the graph looks like the data were grossly
over-sampled for XANES, you might want to sieve it to a more reasonable
step size such as 0.1 to 0.3 eV through the edge. That will also help
with file size.
2. If the graph you attached is representative of the data, the data
were not collected over a large enough energy range for normalisation.
Next time, try +/- 100 - 200 eV below and above the edge (maybe 250 above).

Hi all,
I have some spectra collected by a collaborator, Francesco Ressico, a
PhD student at Uni Bologna, (see attached .h5 file below) and we are
having trouble normalizing the Fe K edge spectra. The data are for
serpentine group minerals and were collected in fluorescence mode. In
the attached file, the correct X array value is 'energy_enc', the data
type is 'xas', and the y array should be 'mu_fluo_det0'. The spectra
are already normalized for the incoming beam energy (although this can
also be done using 'flou_det0/i0'). There are multiple spectra in the
file, any one of them can be chosen to test the procedure.
After loading the spectra, I am able to plot the raw spectra correctly
(see attached). But when I try to normalize the pre and post edge
regions and plot the normalized spectra, the software only gives a
blank plot. I have tried changing the normalization type, polynomial
type, range, etc for both the pre and post edge, but nothing seems to
work. I also tested different spectra, but with similar results.
Does anyone have suggestions for how these data can be normalized?
The h5 file is too large, so here is a dropbox link
