Abstract

In this contribution, we will present an overview of the role of the multiple scattering (MS) calculations in the X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) approach in order to extract from experimental data quantitative structural information on the active sites of the hemocyanin derivatives and of the related model compounds considered.
