This process dos nothing and is used for testing
Part of the Union components, a set of components that work together and thus sperates geometry and physics within McStas. The use of this component requires other components to be used.
1) One specifies a number of processes using process components like this one 2) These are gathered into material definitions using Union_make_material 3) Geometries are placed using Union_box / Union_cylinder, assigned a material 4) A Union_master component placed after all of the above
Only in step 4 will any simulation happen, and per default all geometries defined before the master, but after the previous will be simulated here.
There is a dedicated manual available for the Union_components
Algorithm: Described elsewhere
Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
