Description

This source model reads the dumped radiation field output from Simplex and samples it to be used
in McXtrace.

SIMPLEX is a computer program to support designing the accelerator components
in the FEL facility and help the FEL user estimate the optical properties of
FEL radiation. Various kinds of FEL simulations can be performed using SIMPLEX.
See SIMPLEX.
