(a) Shape of the ENGIN-X instrumental gauge volume, as measured by scanning a 0.25 mm thin nylon thread across the horizontal plane (xz plane in Fig. 4). (b) Intensity scans along the beam, i.e. across the collimators, for the 2 mm collimator (solid symbol) and for the 4 mm collimator (open symbol). The lines are Gaussian fits to the data. (c) Intensity scans across the beam along the line passing through the centre of the IGV for 2 mm and 4 mm opening of the horizontal slits. The lines are least-squares fits to the data using error functions to describe the edges. |
