The experimental EELFS spectra of M_2,3 edge Fe and K edge of oxygen from surface of pure Fe and stoichiometric oxides FeO, Fe₂O₃ were obtained. The normalized oscillating parts from the corresponding experimental EELFS spectra were extracted. The analysis of normalized EELFS spectra were carried out taking into account the multipolarity of the excitation of the internal level of the atom and without it. The importance of taking into account the multipolarity of excitation of an atomic core level by an electron impact is illustrated.
