McStas: Exact_radial_coll

[ Identification | Description | Input parameters | Links ]

The Exact_radial_coll Component

An exact radial Soller collimator.

Identification

  • Site:
  • Author: Roland Schedler
  • Origin: HMI
  • Date: October 2006

Description

Radial Soller collimator with rectangular opening, specified length and
specified foil thickness.
The collimator is made of many trapezium shaped nslit stacked radially.
The nslit are separated by absorbing foils, the whole stuff is inside
an absorbing housing.
The component should be positioned at the radius center. The model is exact.
The neutron beam outside the collimator area is transmitted unaffected.

Example: Exact_radial_coll(theta_min=-5, theta_max=5, nslit=100,
radius=1.0, length=.3, h_in=.2, h_out=.3, d=0.0001)
