order of moving and rotating

[Ralph Gilles]

Hello Kristian,

I am working together with Georg Artus on the program MCSTAS and I am very
satisfied how it works. Congratulation to you and your colleague.

I am responsible for the powder diffractometer in munich. Up to now I
finished simulations from source over neutron guide, monochromator second
neutron guide, soller collimator and  to the sample.

Now I would like to include the sample of you (Al2O3) , another soller
collimator and finally the detector.

Two questions:

1.) Is it possible to save the result at the sample and for scanning the
Bragg peak only to simulate the part sample to detector with an input file
from the sample (to save a lot of computing time), because all calculations
up to the sample are equal if I would like to see a Bragg scan ?

2.) Or do you have another idea how to simulate the last part of the
diffractometer efficiently to see how Bragg peaks look like ?

greetings, Ralph
