Errors on the neutron energy for the case of Det M:

[math]E_n \pm U(E_n)=m_nc^2/2 \cdot 1/c^2 \cdot (l_n/t_n)^2 \cdot [1 \pm 2 \sqrt{U^2(l_n)/l^2_n + U^2(t_n)/t^2_n}][/math]

Where uncertainty in the neutron flight pass due to the finite width of the detector (14.8 cm) [math]U(l_n) = 14.8cm/2 \cdot cos(\theta)[/math] and uncertainty in zero time definition in neutron TOF spectrum [math]U(t_n)=10 ns[/math]

Correlation between the neutron energy and neutron energy uncertainty is plotted below:
