X-ray Absorption Near-Edge Spectroscopy (XANES) provides useful information on the local atomic structure and on the electronic state density of matter. This technique is promising for Warm Dense Matter (WDM) studies, where the matter is disordered but highly correlated. In the general context of WDM studies, we focus on the K-edge absorption behavior of aluminum starting from the solid to a warm dense state.
