// Rough process describing a radiator of X-ray transition radiation.  
// Thicknesses of plates and gas gaps are distributed according to gamma 
// distribution. x are thicknesses of plates or gas gaps:
//
// p(x) = (alpha/<x>)^alpha * x^(alpha-1) * std::exp(-alpha*x/<x>) / G(alpha)
//
// G(alpha) is Euler's gamma function.
// Plates have mean <x> = fPlateThick > 0 and power alpha = fAlphaPlate > 0 :
// Gas gaps have mean <x> = fGasThick > 0 and power alpha = fAlphaGas > 0 :
// We suppose that:
// formation zone ~ mean thickness << absorption length
// for each material and in the range 1-100 keV. This allows us to simplify
// interference effects in radiator stack (GetStackFactor method).
// 
// 
// History:
// 21.01.02 V. Grichine, first version
