Is there any physical explanation for negative extinction coefficient, $k(E)$, over a spectral range of energies?

Measured data for $n(E)$ of air were fitted to equations for $n(E)$ and $k(E)$. The measured data for n(E) spanned 0.734 to 6.702 eV. To obtain fits to the equations for n(E) and k(E) in the absence ...
