The prisma2 Instrument

Simple simulation of PRISMA2 with RITA-style analyser backend.

Identification

• Site: ISIS
• Author: Kristian Nielsen and Mark Hagen
• Origin: ISIS/Risoe
• Date: August 1998.
• Version: 1.10

Description

Demonstrates how the standard components from the component library
may be easily modified for special purposes; in this case to have
the individual analyser blades paint a "color" on the neutrons to
differentiate them in the detector.

Output is in the file "prisma2.tof". The format is ASCII; each
line consists of the time-of-flight in microseconds followed by seven
intensities of neutrons from each individual analyser blade.

Example: mcrun prisma2.instr TT=-30

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
