A dictionary of geometry parameters for the beam |
Description#
Set properties of the beam on a given workspace. Current support is limited to specifying the beam geometry, which sets a Slit (rectangular) or Circular profile, with properties of either width and height, or radius, respectively.
Geometry Flags#
The following Geometry flags are recognised by the algorithm:
Shape: A string indicating the geometry type. Supports Slit and Circle.
Height: Height of the slit in centimeters. Required for the Slit setting.
Width: Width of the slit in centimeters. Required for the Slit setting.
Radius: Radius of the circle in centimeters. Required for the Circle setting.
Usage#
wsSlit = CreateSampleWorkspace()
SetBeam(wsSlit, Geometry={'Shape': 'Slit', 'Width': 1.0, 'Height': 0.75})
wsCircle = CreateSampleWorkspace()
SetBeam(wsCircle, Geometry={'Shape': 'Circle', 'Radius': 1.0})
