GW

The GW command defines a Gaussian Waist beam which is then summed to the master beam. The syntax is:

GW weight waistx waisty decenterx decentery aperturex aperturey orderx ordery

Note that the data values are separated by spaces. The weight value defines the dimensionless relative total power of this beam as compared to other beams in the same ZMM file. The weight value may be negative, for details search the help files for "Using random values". The other values are exactly as defined for the Gaussian Waist beam, search the help files for "Gaussian Waist" for a description. The transverse data values, such as the waist and aperture sizes, may be scaled from the POP Beam Definition tab; search the help files for "Using the scale factor" for details.
