Description
SHADOW [B. Lai and F. Cerrina, Nucl. Instrum. Methods A 246, 337 (1986)] is the primary ray-tracing program used at SRC. Ray tracing provides a tremendous amount of information regarding beamline layout, mirror sizes, resolution, alignment tolerances, and beam size at various locations. It also provides a way to check the beamline design for errors. Two recent designs have been ray traced extensively: an undulator-based, 4-meter, normal-incidence monochromator (NIM) [R. Reininger, M.C. Severson, R.W.C. Hansen, W.R. Winter, M.A. Green, and W.S. Trzeciak, Rev. Sci. Instrum. 66, 2194 (1995)] and an undulator-based, plane-grating monochromator (PGM) [R. Reininger, S.L. Crossley, M.A. Lagergren, M.C. Severson, and R.W.C. Hansen, Nucl. Instrum. Methods A 347, 304 (1994)]. copyright 1996 American Institute of Physics
