ILL_H15_D11 Instrument
D11 - LOWEST MOMENTUM TRANSFER and LOWEST BACKGROUND SANS
D11 is the archetype of a long, pinhole geometry instrument for small angle
neutron scattering (SANS), designed for the study of large scale structures in
soft matter systems, chemistry, biology, solid state physics and materials science.
This model allows to specify the collimation length, i.e. the free path between
the end of the guide and the sample location. When Lc=1.5 m, the intensity is
maximal, but Q-resolution (divergence) is degraded. The Lc=40.5 m configuration
is the low-Q one.
The collimation can also be given as predefined configuration 'iLc' starting from 0
iLc ={ 1.5, 2.5, 4, 5.5, 8, 10.5, 13.5, 16.5, 20.5, 28, 34, 40.5}
so that e.g. iLc=5 corresponds with a 10.5 m collimation
The quality of the collimation section can be specified among a set of glass
pre-set specifications. The available configurations are:
| Borkron_1972 Borkron_2003 Borofloat_2001 Borofloat_2003
Chamfers [mm] | 0.2 0.2 0.8 0.2
Wavyness [rad]| 2.5e-5 1e-4 8e-4 2e-4
