//  Documentation:
//      The class simulates the multiple scattering for adjoint proton of charged particle. In this approximate implementation the reverse multiple scattering 
//      is the same than the foward one. This should be changed in the future to have the MultipleScaterring computed for the energy  at the end of the step 
//      and not before the step.
