The templateDIFF Instrument

Simple monochromator Diffractometer for powders

Identification

Description

A template powder diffractometer used as a tutorial at LLB.
Default geometry is from D20@ILL.

If included after a guide, use ALPHA1=0 and L1=0 (the first collimator is then
the guide with effective ALPHA1=m*0.1*lambda). If you prefer to include
explicitely a collimator before the monochromator, use L1=1.2.
