Description
Models an elliptical mirror. The reflectivity profile is given by a 2-column reflectivity free text file with format [q(Å-1) R(0-1)]. The component is centered on the ellipse.
Example: Mirror_Elliptic(reflect="supermirror_m3.rfl", focus=6.6e-4, interfocus = 8.2, yheight = 0.0002, zmin=-3.24, zmax=-1.49)
