_pd_instr_divg_ax_

Definition:

   Describes collimation in the axial direction
   (perpendicular to the plane containing the incident
   and diffracted beams) for the instrument.
   Values are the maximum divergence angles in
   degrees, as limited by slits or beamline optics
   other than Soller slits (see _pd_instr_soller_ax_):
     *_src/mono, collimation between the radiation source
         and the monochromator;
     *_mono/spec, collimation between the monochromator and
         the specimen;
     *_src/spec, collimation between the radiation source
         and the specimen;
     *_spec/anal, collimation between the specimen and the
         analyser;
     *_anal/detc, collimation between the analyser and the
         detector;
     *_spec/detc, collimation between the specimen and the
         detector.

   Note that *_src/spec is used in place of *_src/mono and 
   *_mono/spec if there is no monochromator in use, and 
   *_spec/detc is used in place of *_spec/anal and *_anal/detc 
   if there is no analyser in use.
