MCViNE_ConstantEnergyTransfer_process ComponentEvery scattered neutron loses exactly the energy E (E<0: gains) and leaves in a uniformly random direction over 4pi. Useful for testing and resolution studies. Union process. Part of the Union components: define this process, collect it into a material with Union_make_material (absorption is set there with my_absorption, the absorption inverse penetration depth at 2200 m/s), assign the material to Union_box/Union_cylinder/Union_sphere/Union_mesh geometries, and add a Union_master after them. Geometry, attenuation and multiple scattering are handled by Union_master; this component provides the MCViNE kernel: the scattering coefficient and the final-state sampling (weight). Isotropic process (powder/liquid-like); rotation is irrelevant. The kernel code is shared with the standalone component MCViNE_ConstantEnergyTransfer (mcvine-lib.c). Uses share/mcvine-lib.h/.c and share/mcvine-union-lib.h/.c; the process type MCViNE is declared in share/union-lib.h and registered with Union_master in share/mcvine-union-lib.h. Example: MCViNE_ConstantEnergyTransfer_process(E=10, scattering_coefficient=10)
