| The neutron angle of incidence to the magnet was
optimized to achieve a separation of about 10 arcsec between the up- and
down-spin neutron peaks [7] and a neutron count rate of about 10/s at
each peak position (Fig. 2], and if the critical
angle of the total reflection of the angle of incidence is exceeded,
then there is a reverse reflection of the IR ray into the optically more
dense medium. * the sample is oscillated [+ or -][delta][omega] about the
diffractometer axis so that the angle of incidence on to the specimen
varies between [theta] + [delta][omega] and [theta] - [delta][omega]. |
