摘要
The matrix procedure to compute the resolution function for a given experimental configuration is briefly given followed by its application to a particular one, a pulsed source TOF neutron spectrometer with crystal monochromator. Both the direct and the inverse geometry are considered. As for the matrix procedure a normal 486 PC is quite suited with computing times of 1-2 s in comparison with the Monte Carlo computing technique for which special computer configurations are needed, the matrix procedure should be preferred when the normal approximation is still valid and if a precise description of the line profile is not required.
