Erratum: “Electrokinetic detection for x-ray spectra of weakly interacting liquids: n-decane and n-nonane” [J. Chem. Phys. 140, 234202 (2014)] Open
Here, the peak centered at 287.8 eV was incorrectly assigned to a C(1s) → σ* (C–C) transition. This peak corresponds to a second C(1s) → σ* (C–H) transition orthogonal to the peak at 287.2 eV as can be seen with the revisualized isosurface…
