FermiChopper ComponentModels a fermi chopper with optional supermirror coated blades supermirror facilities may be disabled by setting m = 0, R0=0 Slit packages are straight. Chopper slits are separated by an infinitely thin absorbing material. The effective transmission (resulting from fraction of the transparent material and its transmission) may be specified. The chopper slit package width may be specified through the total width 'xwidth' of the full package or the width 'w' of each single slit. The other parameter is calculated by: xwidth = nslit*w. The slit package may be made curved and use super-mirror coating. Example: FermiChopper(phase=-50.0, radius=0.04, nu=100, yheight=0.08, w=0.00022475, nslit=200.0, R0=0.0, Qc=0.02176, alpha=2.33, m=0.0, length=0.012, eff=0.95) %VALIDATION Apr 2005: extensive external test, most problems solved (cf. 'Bugs') Validated by: K. Lieutenant, E. Farhi limitations: no absorbing blade width used
