The Pol_monitor Component

Polarisation sensitive monitor.

Identification

Description

polarisation along a given normalized m-vector (mx, my, mz).
The measured quantity is: sx*mx+sy*my+mz*sz

Example: Pol_monitor(xw=0.1, yh=0.1, nchan=11, 
                     mx=0, my=1, mz=0, filename="polMon.data")

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
Name Unit Description Default
xw - Width/diameter of detector (m). 0
yh - Height of detector (m). 0
npol 1 Number of channels 20
filename text Name of file in which to store the detector output  
restore_neutron 1 If set, the monitor does not influence the neutron state 0
mx 1 X-component of monitor vector (can be negative) 0
my 1 Y-component of monitor vector (can be negative) 0
mz 1 Z-component of monitor vector (can be negative) 0

Output parameters

Name Unit Description Default
Pol_N - Array of neutron counts  
Pol_p - Array of neutron weight counts  
Pol_p2 - Array of second moments
