Energy-sensitive monitor.
Author: Kristian Nielsen and Kim Lefmann
Origin: Risoe
Date: April 20, 1998
A square single monitor that measures the energy of the incoming neutrons.
Example: E_monitor(xmin=-0.1, xmax=0.1, ymin=-0.1, ymax=0.1, Emin=1, Emax=50, nE=20, filename="Output.nrj")
Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.

Component source code found in file E_monitor.comp.
The component E_monitor resembles TOF_monitor to a very large extent. Only this monitor is sensitive to the neutron energy, which in binned in nE bins between \(E_\textrm {min}\) and \(E_\textrm {max}\) (in meV).
The output parameters from E_monitor are the total counts, and a file with 1-dimensional data vs. \(E\), similar to TOF_monitor.
