Description
Reads reflectivity values from a data input file (Ref.dat) for a Si/W multilayer. The multilayer code reflects ray in an ideal geometry, does not include surface imperfections The mirror is positioned such that the long axis of the mirror elliptical surface coincides with z-axis The algorithm: Incoming photon's coordinates and direction (k-vector) are transformed into an elliptical reference frame (elliptical parameters are calculated according to the mirror's position and its focusing distances and the incident angle), the intersection point is then defined. A new, reflected photon is then starting at the point of intersection.
