Cooperative International Simulations with McStas
Creators
- 1. ORNL
Description
McStas is a neutron ray-trace simulation package that simulates neutron scattering instruments. Its developers at Riso National Laboratory in Denmark and the Institute Max von Laue-Paul Langevin in France are collaborating with the SNS instrument scientists, the Neutron Science TeraGrid developers, and the DANSE developers to improve the package and make it available to more researchers. Distributed computing on the TeraGrid, the UK eScience Grid, the Open Science Grid, etc. is a goal of this collaboration as well as improved visualization, standardized NeXus output, improved performance, more sample kernels, event mode and histogram interfaces, and an analysis interface
