## Description

    A component that optimizes the neutron flux passing through the
    Source_Optimizer in order to have the maximum flux at the
    Monitor_Optimizer position(s).
    Source_optimizer should be placed just after the source.
    Monitor_Optimizer should be placed at the position to optimize.
    I prefer to put one just before the sample.

    See Source_Optimizer for
    usage example and additional informations.
