Detailed Description

template<typename TDerived>
class corsika::Intersect< TDerived >

This is a CRTP class to provide a generic volume-tree intersection for the purpose of tracking.

It return the closest distance in time to the next geometric intersection, as well as a pointer to the corresponding new volume.

User may provide an optional global step-length limit as parameter. This may be needd for (simpler) algorithms in magnetic fields, where tracking errors grow linearly with step-length. Obviously, in the case of the step-length limit, the returend "next" volume is just the current one.
