The Pol_SF_ideal Component

Ideal model of a spin flipper

Identification

• Site:
• Author: Erik B Knudsen
• Origin: DTU Physics
• Date: May 2017

Description

This component simply mirrors the polarization vector of the neutron
ray in the plane through (0,0,0) with normal nx,ny,nz.
The flipper is surrounded by a perfectly absorbing box. Neutron rays not hitting
the box are left untouched.

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.

Name	Unit	Description	Default
nx		x-component of the normal vector of the flipping plane.	0
ny		y-component of the normal vector of the flipping plane.	1
nz		z-component of the normal vector of the flipping plane.	0
xwidth	m	width of the spin flipper.	0.1
yheight	m	height of the spin flipper.	0.1
zdepth	m	length of the spin flipper.	0.1
