Figure 11
Systematic approach to find the best elliptical shape for focusing the neutrons on a 1 × 1 cm area on the sample position. fp1 is the distance from the first focal point of the ellipse to the beginning of the elliptical NG, and fp2 is the distance from the 2nd focal point to the end of the elliptical NG. The maximum intensity is found with fp2 = 40 cm behind the end of the elliptical NG (focal point 10 cm in front of the sample position) and fp1 around 8 m in front of the elliptical NG.
