McStas: Pol_constBfield

[ Identification | Description | Input parameters | Links ]

The Pol_constBfield Component

Constant magnetic field.

Identification

  • Site:
  • Author: Peter Christiansen
  • Origin: RISOE
  • Date: July 2006

Description

Rectangular box with constant B field along y-axis (up). The
component can be rotated to make either a guide field or a spin
flipper. A neutron hitting outside the box opening or the box sides
is absorbed.

Example: Pol_constBfield(xwidth=0.1, yheight=0.1, length=0.2, fliplambda=5.0)

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.

xwidthmWidth of opening

BGaussMagnetic field along y-direction0
fliplambdalambda for calculating B field0
flipangleAngle flipped for lambda = fliplambda fliplambda and flipangle overrides B so a neutron with s= (1, 0, 0) and v = (0, 0, v(fliplambda)) will have s =(cos(flipangle), sin(flipangle), 0) after the section.180
