McStas: Powder1

[ Identification | Description | Input parameters | Links ]

The Powder1 Component

General powder sample with a single scattering vector.

Identification

  • Site:
  • Author: E.M.Lauridsen, N.B.Christensen, A.B.Abrahamsen
  • Origin: Risoe
  • Date: 4.2.98

Description

General powder sample with a single scattering vector. No multiple ,
scattering, no incoherent scattering, no secondary extinction.
The shape of the sample may be a cylinder of given radius or a box with
dimensions xwidth, yheight, zdepth.
The efficient is highly improved when restricting the vertical scattering
range on the Debye-Scherrer cone (with 'd_phi').
You may use PowderN to use N scattering lines defined in a file.

Example: Powder1(radius=0.015,yheight=0.05,q =1.8049,d_phi=0.07,pack=1,
j=6,DW=1,F2=56.8,Vc=85.0054,sigma_abs=0.463)
