The Detector_pn Component

Block of a attenuating material

Identification

Description

A scintillator detector model taking photoabsorption efficiency into account. As such it consitututes a
more physical version of the PSD_monitor. Only direct absorption is taken into account.

Example: Detector_pn(restore_xray=restore_flag,filename="detector_Si", material_datafile="Si.txt", xwidth=1e-2, yheight=1e-2,zdepth=1e-5)

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
