your problem/ or what is not honored. As far as I understand:<br>
<br>
In the input you enter an energy range from zero (=EF) to something.<br>
This means all spectra (of different O-atoms) start at zero and possible <br>
shifts should be evident.<br>
You also enter an edge onset, which could be taken as the corresponding <br>
core eigenvalue-EF (although this is a very bad estimate of the core <br>
binding energy - and excitonic effects will change this also.<br>
<br>
The shift (relative positions) of 2 O-atoms in the same compound could <br>
come from:<br>
<br>
1)different position of O-p states in the conduction band<br>
<br>
2)different core BE<br>
<br>
2)different excitonic effect.<br>
<br>
1) is trivial and should come out of the simulations<br>
<br>
2+3 are much more difficult to estimate. The groundstate core-energies <br>
will most likely not give proper corelevel shifts and no excitons.<br>
<br>
You can do several core hole calculations, which for an insulator are <br>
usually mandatory anyway. The core energies of such calculations are too <br>
low (that would require more half a core-hole), but excitonic effects <br>
might be covered partially.<br>
