Changed beam configuration to support different beam types and paramaters, following general usage of different X-Ray sources.

[x] Lab Beam
[x] Synchrotron Beam
[x] Med Beam
~~Intensity~~ - waiting on gvxr
~~Exposure~~ - waiting on gvxr
[ ] xpecgen (How do you get eV from V?)
[ ] Synchrotron filters
[x] Synchrotron beam harmonics

Some issues:

How is single-energy synchrotron emission effected by filters?
xpecgen takes in kinetic energy of electrons, rather than tube voltage.

WYVERN2742 commented 2 years ago

Issues with xpecgen, it expects a keV transmission value (30-200 keV), but I don't understand how to generate these range of values, since:

$$eV = VQ$$

$$eV = V(It/e)$$

Using the variables $V = 70kV$, $I = 120μA$, $t = 1$ and constant $e = 1.602176634e-19$, results in a value of kev=5.242867622547042e+16, much too high.

This is 100% an understanding error on my behalf, but is delaying progress. An issue will be opened.
