The templateTAS Instrument

Template RESCAL type triple-axis machine (TAS)

Identification

Description

This instrument is a simple model of triple-axis spectrometer.
It is directly illuminated by the moderator,
and has curved monochromator and analyzer.
Sample can be specified as a powder, liquid/amorphous or a pure incoherent
scatterer (e.g. vanadium, which is the default).
Sample geometry can be spherical or cylindrical.
For PG002 monochromator/analyzer setting, a reflectivity curve vs. wavelength
is used, else reflectivity is set to 70 %. To suppress collimators, set their
divergence to 0 (ALFn BETn).
Default instrument geometry is from IN20@ILL with PG monochromator/analyzer.
