The Guide_wavy Component

Neutron guide with gaussian waviness.

Identification

Description

Models a rectangular guide tube centered on the Z axis. The entrance lies
in the X-Y plane.
For details on the geometry calculation see the description in the McStas
reference manual.

Example: m=2 Qc=0.0218 (nat. Ni) W=1/300 alpha=4.38 R0=0.995 (given by Daniel Clemens, PSI)

%BUGS
This component does not work with gravitation on. Use component Guide_gravity then.

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
