Hi Vadim,
1. Many experts advise to do multiple k-weight fitting to deal with
correlated variables. Should one always use multiple k-weights, or is it
better to switch to one kw value once the correlations are taken care of –
to refine the remaining variables? Does it make any difference?

Thanks for the references, Anatoly!
And, what the heck, I might as well give my opinion on the general topic.
While the referee's argument is understandable, I think there are few
"physics" fields in which undergrads can make greater contributions
than in the characterization of materials usin
Hi all,
I'm trying to compile a partial list of EXAFS references that include
undergraduates (or high school students) as coauthors. The reason is
that one of the referees on an earlier grant proposal of mine
expressed some doubt as to whether undergraduates would be able to
participate in a
Vadim,
The ss2 of multiple-scattering (ms) paths and single-scattering (ss) paths are
not simply related
unless the legs in the ms paths are collinear.
In that case, as published in Frenkel, Stern, Qian, Newville, Phys. Rev. B, 48,
