Description

An (n times m) pixel PSD monitor taking phase into account.
As the i:th ray hits a pixel (j,k) in the monitor the intensity in that
pixel will be updated as a complex sum, i.e.  $P_i = P_{i-1} + p_i exp{-\phi_i}$ .

By setting ratio<1 the effective pixel area becomes a
fraction of the ideal (which is to divide the xwidth and yheight intervals into nx and ny abutting
subintervals). This reduces the monitor effective area by ratio^2.
If the centering flag is set - the monitor will treat all rays as if they hit a pixel
center. This behaves as if ratio -> 0, but at no cost in statistics.

Example: PSD_monitor_coh(xwidth=0.1, yheight=0.1,
nx=90, ny=90, filename="Output.psd")

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
