As a test, I've just used mcstas to simulate a very simple reflectometer with these components and created mantid nexus output

On reading into mantid the wavelength calculation seems to work fine but the calculation of momentum transfer seems to go wrong.
I've checked that the q overlaps from the sample do what I expect by doing the conversion by hand so the simulation appears to be correct.
That leaves and error in the instrument definition and how theta and l2 are calculated.
Who is looking after this part of the interaction?
Do I need to talk to someone from the Mantid team or McStas.

Thanks

Rob
