// Class description:
//
// Implicit Euler stepper for magnetic field:
//      x_1 = x_0 + h/2 * ( dx(t_0,x_0) + dx(t_0+h,x_0+h*dx(t_0,x_0) ) )
//
// Second order solver.
// Takes the current derivative and add it to the current position.
// Takes the output and its derivative. Adds the mean of both
// derivatives to form the final output.
