Abstract
The neutron velocity selector is a device used to produce a monochromatic neutron beam with continuous flux. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the sensitivity of the transmission factor and resolution of a multiblade neutron velocity selector to the various parameters using the McStas software. To this end, two instruments were created using the Arm, Progress_bar, Source_simple, DivMonitor, L_monitor, Guide_channeled and V_selector components of the McStas software. The used V_selector component to simulate the multiblade neutron velocity selector was created by considering three assumptions: 1. The absorption of colliding neutrons to selector blades, 2. No interaction of...

Abstract
To study the structure of materials, among materials containing hydrogen, an instrument called the "small-angle neutron scattering instrument" is used. Having a monochromatic neutron beam is the most basic component of this instrument. This beam is often produced using a device called the "neutron velocity selector". The neutron velocity selector is a rotating mechanical piece that allows for passage of neutrons at a certain speed, according to its rotational speed. In fact, this device produces a monochromatic neutron beam with continuous flux. Until now, it has been designed and manufactured in a variety of models, which are generally divided into two groups of multi-disc and multi-blade...
