Description

Sums neutrons (0th, 1st, and 2nd moment of p) flying through
the rectangular monitor opening. May also be used as detector.

Example: Monitor(xmin=-0.1, xmax=0.1, ymin=-0.1, ymax=0.1)

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.

Name	Unit	Description	Default
xmin	m	Lower x bound of opening	0
xmax	m	Upper x bound of opening	0
ymin	m	Lower y bound of opening	0
ymax	m	Upper y bound of opening	0
xwidth	m	Width/diameter of detector (x). Overrides xmin,xmax.	0
yheight	m	Height of detector (y). Overrides ymin,ymax.	0
restore_neutron	1	If set, the monitor does not influence the neutron state	0

Output parameters

Name	Unit	Description	Default
Nsum	-	Number of neutron hits
