7.3 The PolAnalyser_ideal McStas Component
(Unphysical) ideal analyzer.
Identification
-
Author: Erik Knudsen
-
Origin: Risoe
-
Date: June 2010
Description
This is an ideal model of a polarization analyser device. Given a polarization vector it "lets through" a scaled neutron weight. An imperfect analyzer could be modelled by an analysis vector M with |M|<1.
Example: PolAnalyser_ideal(mx=0, my=1, mz=0)
Input parameters
Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
