ComponentProduces a time-of-flight spectrum, from the ESS parameters Chooses evenly in lambda, exponentially decaying in time . Adapted from Moderator by: KN, M.Hagen, August 1998 Units of flux: n/cm^2/s/AA/ster (McStas units are in general neutrons/second) Example general parameters (general): size=0.12 Lmin=0.1 Lmax=10 dist=2 focus_xw=0.06 yh=0.12 nu=50 branchframe=0.5 Example moderator specific parameters (From F.
