Notes:
A Monte Carlo code for the simulation of neutron strain scanning experiments on a reactor-based two-axis diffractometer is described. In order to validate this code, several experiments have been performed. A comparison is made between experimental and simulated results for instrumental resolution, primary beam divergence and wavelength distribution in the incident neutron beam. Finally, the application of the simulation results to the analysis of a real neutron strain scanning experiment is outlined.
