[Wien] Set up of broadening by Telnes

[David Holec]

Dear Wien2k users,

I've just noticed that when the case.inb file is written by either
writeorientedangularspectrum.f or writeaveragedenergyspectrum.f (subroutines
of TELNES2, see SRC_telnes2), it always sets the valence broadening to be
linear with E (i.e. w=1). The broadening program offers four different
valance broadenings (w=0...3, see valencebroadening.f in SRC_broadening).
What are the reasons for that? Why TELNES2 always chooses linear broadening
and not, for example, the linear broadening (w=0)? Is this related the
post-processing of the experimental spectra (i.e. the background is
subtracted or not)?

Thanks for you help.
David
