Many times I want to create beams, so I just crank up the Cos^N to a high value, but the beam energy profile will still be a distribution according to its temperature. Most of the time that’s fine, but now I wanted to look at modeling the scattering of a 40 keV beam of atomic hydrogen atoms through a background gas, using your new scattering features. But I need to set it to a fixed energy. Is there a back door way I can accomplish this? Also, will I be able to figure out the beam divergence if I use data from the particle logger?
The value is chosen so that it correpsonds to the mean value of the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution:
v_avg=sqrt(8RT/(PI*m))
And thus the pressure values don’t change.
Incidentally, I discovered a missing square root in some recent versions of Molflow. To use this feature, please use this temporary version (download the artifact for your os), until the fix is published in 2.9.27.
