Detailed Description

Energy loss according to Bethe-Bloch + special treatment for electrons. Adds effects from energy loss according to Bethe-Bloch formula without density effect. Assumes silicon as material. For electrons energy loss due to radiation added according to formulae by Bethe & Heitler. Ported from ORCA.
