Description

A square single monitor that measures the projection of the
polarisation along a given normalized m-vector (mx, my, mz).
The measured quantity is: sx*mx+sy*my+mz*sz

Example: Pol_monitor(xwidth=0.1, yheight=0.1, nchan=11, mx=0, my=1, mz=0)

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.

Name	Unit	Description	Default
xwidth	m	Width of detector	0.1
yheight	m	Height of detector	0.1
restore_neutron	1	If set, the monitor does not influence the neutron state	0
nowritefile	1	If set, monitor will skip writing to disk	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
