McXtrace: Test_PowderN

[ Identification | Description | Input parameters | Links ]

The Test_PowderN Instrument

Unit-test instrument for the PowderN sample component.

Identification

  • Site: Tests_samples
  • Author: Erik B Knudsen (erkn@fysik.dtu.dk)
  • Origin: DTU Physics
  • Date: 2009

Description

Simply a model source illuminating a powder sample.
The default sample itself is an LaB6-powder.
Alternatively, the Single_crystal component can also be tested in powder mode.

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
