Detailed Description

class allpix::ElectricFieldReaderModule;

Module to read electric fields from INIT format or apply a linear electric field.

Read the model of the electric field from the config during initialization:

For a linear field create a constant electric field to apply over the whole sensitive device
For the INIT format, reads the specified file and add the electric field grid to the bound detectors
