font-family:Arial;color:black'>I am a neutron user, new to the field of neutron
beam tracking. I had started using mcstas few weeks ago. During my toying with
the program, I had managed to describe a simple diffraction setup with a 1D
disk detector. I would like to perform a scanning procedure with this detector,
using the scan option. However, it seems as if mcstas (version 1.12), while in
the scan option, "does not" take into consideration the number of "neutron
counts" I am asking it to use. The resulting data have the same statistics
when I use either 1000 neutron counts, or 100000000 neutron counts. Whenever I
perform only one point (NO SCAN) the difference between the data resulted from
different values of "neutron counts" is obvious both in the
calculation time and the statistics</span></font><span dir=RTL></span><font
