TOFRes_sample
ComponentAn inelastic sample with completely uniform scattering in both solid angle and energy. This sample is used together with the TOFRes_monitor component and (optionally) the mcresplot front-end to compute the resolution function of all time-of-flight instruments. The method of time focusing is used to optimize the simulations. The shape of the sample is either a hollow cylinder or a rectangular box. The hollow cylinder shape is specified with an inner and outer radius. The box is specified with dimensions xwidth, yheight, zthick. The scattered neutrons will have directions towards a given target and energies between E0-dE and E0+dE, where E0 is calculated from the position and width of the time bin. This target area is default disk shaped, but may also be rectangular if specified focus_xw and focus_yh or focus_aw and focus_ah, respectively in meters and degrees. The target itself is either situated according to given coordinates (x,y,z), or setting the relative target_index of the component to focus at (next is +1). This target position will be set to its AT position. When targeting to centered components, such as spheres or cylinders, define an Arm component where to focus at. Example: TOFRes_sample(radius_i=0.001, radius_o=0.01, h=0.04, focus_xw=0.025, focus_yh=0.025, E0=14.6,dE=2, target_x=0, target_y=0, target_z=1)
