Mirror_elliptic ComponentTakes a reflectivity (default=1) as input and reflects rays in a ideal geometry elliptic mirror. The mirror is positioned such that the a-axis of the mirror ellipsoid is on the x-axis, the b-axis is along the y-axis and the c is along the z-axis. The reference point of the mirror is the ellipsoid centre, offset by one half-axis along the y-axis. (See the component manual for a drawing). This means that to position the mirror correctly. the user positions the ellipsoid governing the mirror shape, not the mirror itself.
| Name | Unit | Description | Default | |
| x_a | m | 1st short half axis (along x). Commonly set to zero, which really implies infinite value, so crystal is an elliptic cylinder. | 0 | |
| y_b | m | 2nd short half axis (along y), which is also the presumed near-normal direction, reflection near the y-z plane. | 1.0 | |
| z_c | m | long half axis (along z). Commonly a=0. b=c, which creates a circular cylindrical surface. | 1.0 | |
| length | m | z depth (length) of the crystal. | 0.05 | |
| width | m | x width of the crystal. | 0.02 | |
| R0 | 1 | Reflectivity of mirror. | 1 | |
| coating | str | Datafile containing either mirror material constants or reflectivity numbers. | "" |
