Dear wien2k users, I'm interested in the absolute value of the cross section of the scattered atom, so using TELNES3, I calculate the energy dependent ELNES, such as O_K edge for only one equivalent O atom in the unit cell. If I integrate the calculated spectra, I will get the total cross section within an energy window. So my question is : What is the unit of spectra values in case.broadspec? Is it a.u.^2/eV? As I saw the comment in the source code (modula.F) that "we work in atomic units". By the way, for the averaged spectrum, is the final (single) differential cross section divided by 4*pi or not (that is,scattered events per solid angle or the whole solid angle?)? Any response will be appreciated!
