McStas: DivPos_monitor

[ Identification | Description | Input parameters | Links ]

The DivPos_monitor Component

Divergence/position monitor (acceptance diagram).

Identification

  • Site:
  • Author: Kristian Nielsen
  • Origin: Risoe
  • Date: 1999

Description

2D detector for intensity as a function of both horizontal position
and wavelength. This gives information similar to an aceptance diagram used
eg. to investigate beam profiles in neutron guides.

Example: DivPos_monitor(nh=20, ndiv=20, filename="Output.dip",
xmin=-0.1, xmax=0.1, ymin=-0.1, ymax=0.1, maxdiv_h=2)

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
