We report on a study of grazing incidence absorption and reflection sp
ectra of NiO in the region of the Ni 2p edge. The aim is to evaluate t
he distortion of the near edge spectrum by the critical angle behavior
of individual components within the spectrum. This can be used to imp
rove the separation of multiplets and enhance low spectral weight line
shapes like charge transfer satellites. The measured spectra have bee
n compared with calculations using an optical model. (C) 1997 American
