McStas: Sans_spheres

[ Identification | Description | Input parameters | Links ]

The Sans_spheres Component

Sample for Small Angle Neutron Scattering - hard spheres in thin solution, mono disperse.

Identification

  • Site:
  • Author: P. Willendrup, K. Lefmann, L. Arleth
  • Origin: Risoe
  • Date: 19.12.2003

Description

Sample for use in a SANS instrument, models hard, mono disperse spheres in thin solution.
The shape of the sample may be a filled box with dimensions
xwidth, yheight, zdepth, a cylinder with dimensions radius and yheight,
a filled sphere with radius.

Example: Sans_spheres(R = 100, Phi = 1e-3, Delta_rho = 0.6, sigma_abs = 50, xwidth=0.01, yheight=0.01, zdepth=0.005)
