McStas: GISANS_tests

[ Identification | Description | Examples | Input parameters | Links ]

The GISANS_tests Instrument

Instrument to test features of newly developed sample model for GISANS from H. Frielinghaus.

Identification

  • Site: Tests_samples
  • Author: Peter Willendrup (DTU/ESS) and Henrich Frielinghaus (MLZ)
  • Origin: MLZ
  • Date: 2023-2024

Description

Instrument to test features of newly developed sample model for GISANS from H. Frielinghaus,
developed to model the GISANS features described in M. S. Hellsing et. al [1]

Test case 1, grazing incidence from front

Examples

(Test cases in bold)
  • Test: mcrun GISANS_tests.instr mode=1 Detector: DETfin_I=66.7514
  • Test case 2, grazing incidence from back
  • Test: mcrun GISANS_tests.instr mode=2 Detector: DETfin_I=418.947
  • Test case 3, transmission, with beamstop
  • Test: mcrun GISANS_tests.instr mode=3 BEAMSTOP=1 Detector: DETfin_I=4.93923e-05
  • Test case 4, transmission, without beamstop
  • Test: mcrun GISANS_tests.instr mode=3 BEAMSTOP=0 Detector: DETfin_I=0.000247253
