Abstract

A general virtual neutron experiment for TOF neutron reflectometer was introduced, including instrument simulation, sample modeling, detector simulation and data reduction to mimic the routine of real experimental process and data reduction. The reduced data fit quite well with the sample simulation, confirming the reliability of our algorithm and the smearing effect was analyzed. Methodology and algorithms developed in this study paves the way for the future development of data processing and data reduction software for the TOF neutron reflectometers in China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS). Details of the virtual experiment and performance of the instrument was demonstrated.
