There is a set of predefined materials for use in elements such as collimators, e.g.
| “Air” | “LiquidHelium”
|
| “Aluminium” | “NbTi”
|
| “BeamGasPlugMat” | “Niobium”
|
| “Beryllium” | “Silicon”
|
| “CarbonMonoxide” | “SmCo”
|
| “CarbonSteel” | “Soil”
|
| “Concrete” | “Titanium”
|
| “Copper” | “TitaniumAlloy”
|
| “Graphite” | “Tungsten”
|
| “Invar” | “Vacuum”
|
| “Iron” | “Vanadium”
|
| “LaserVac” | “Water”
|
| “Lead” | “WeightIron”
|
| “LeadTungstate”
|
Currently “Air”, “CarbonMonoxide” and “Vacuum” are gas at T=300K, p=10^-12 bar: both “Air” and “Vacuum” are a N(80):O(20) mixture, “CarbonMonoxide is composed of CO molecules.
There are also predefined elements (i.e. atoms) that can be used for building composite materials: "H", "He", "Be", "C" , "N", "O", "Al", "Si", "P" , "S", "Ca", "Ti", “V" , "Mn", "Fe", "Co", "Ni", "Cu", "Nb", "Sm", "W" , "Pb".

bdsim --materials from the command line.
