No worries...data actually has 0.1 eV steps...a bit finer than I would use for Fe, but not grossly oversampled.

For comparison between these data sets , you might try just subtracting the y value of the 1st point (ok..in data file 1st point is NAN)...maybe average of the first 3 - 5 points...then divide by the value of the last point (or avg of a few). This will allow you to compare data sets on reasonable scale and look for changes.

Dear Robert,

Apologies, the large h5 files were how the data were sent to me. I figured out how to export a single csv file, which is attached. Unfortunately, these data were collected without my input and I am trying to help the student make the data usable if possible. For my own projects I collected Fe K edge XAS spectra from 7000 to 7350 eV. I have not seen all the data from the session, but I believe the data were only collected over the range 7100 to 7150 eV for all analyses. I guess these are not useable?

Cheers,
Jesse

    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?
