摘要: Abstract In view of the trend towards smaller samples and experiments under extreme conditions it is important to deliver small homogeneous neutron beams sample area. For this purpose, elliptic and/or Montel mirrors are ideally suited as phase space neutrons can be defined far away from sample. Therefore, only useful will arrive at position leading a very low background. We demonstrate ease designing transport systems using simple numeric tools, which verified Monte-Carlo simulations that allow taking into account effects gravity finite beam size. It shown significant part brilliance transferred moderator Our results may have serious impact on design instruments spallation sources such European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund, Sweden.
