McStas - ILL Library
The most up-to-date list of ILL instrument models can be found on the McStas web-site at the location Download/Components/Example.
The various simulated instruments are listed by category (some of these are obsolete)
TAS : three axis spectrometer
DIF : diffractometer
HR : high resolution spectrometer
TOF : time of flight spectrometer
and by origin and author.

The Philosophy of McStas, by P-O. Astrand, Scans meeting, Lake Balaton, 2001 (pdf).
M. Rotter, "McStas Simulation for PANDA", Institut für Angewandte Physik, Technische Universität Dresden, January 2000. On-line copy (gzipped postscript, 1.5Mb). This 90-page report describes a very comprehensive set of simulations performed to design the PANDA triple-axis spectrometer at FRM-II. Many thanks to Martin Rotter for making this available.
Contains examples of the adaptative source (Source_adapt), various monochromator/analyser configurations (see sources at the end of the report).
