<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I want to calculate an ELNES spectrum for bcc Fe and compare it with actual EEL data from experiments in the TEM. The calculated DOS looks like expected with an energy splitting of the spin-up and spin-down electrons
in the 3d states. Roughly 8 eV above the FERMI level there is a small edge observable in both the spin-up and spin-down states. According to older publications, e.g. Papaconstantopoulos, D. A.: Handbook of the Band Structure of Elemental Solids, these dips
are correct, but they turn out to be a problem when using TELNES 3.0.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">With TELNES I want to calculate the L<sub>3</sub> and L<sub>2</sub> absorption edges of bcc Fe. That is why I set the core state (2p) n=1 and l=2 and set the selection rule L=l+-1. I choose to calculate all transitions
(monopole, dipole etc.). Unfortunately TELNES not only fills the empty 3d states near the FERMI energy, but also those little dips I talked about. This results in an additional edge between the L<sub>3</sub> and L<sub>2</sub> absorption edges, which is not
negligible and not observed in the experimental spectra.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Is there any parameter which can determine up to which energy the states are filled in TELNES or could suggest any other solution?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
