/**
   Class describing a Vavilov distribution.

   The probability density function of the Vavilov distribution
   as function of Landau's parameter is given by:
  \f[ p(\lambda_L; \kappa, \beta^2) =
  \frac{1}{2 \pi i}\int_{c-i\infty}^{c+i\infty} \phi(s) e^{\lambda_L s} ds\f]
   where \f$\phi(s) = e^{C} e^{\psi(s)}\f$
   with  \f$ C = \kappa (1+\beta^2 \gamma )\f$
   and \f$\psi(s)= s \ln \kappa + (s+\beta^2 \kappa)
               \cdot \left ( \int \limits_{0}^{1}
               \frac{1 - e^{\frac{-st}{\kappa}}}{t} \,d t- \gamma \right )
               - \kappa \, e^{\frac{-s}{\kappa}}\f$.
   \f$ \gamma = 0.5772156649\dots\f$ is Euler's constant.

   For the class VavilovFast,
   Pdf returns the Vavilov distribution as function of Landau's parameter
   \f$\lambda_L = \lambda_V/\kappa  - \ln \kappa\f$,
   which is the convention used in the CERNLIB routines, and in the tables
   by S.M. Seltzer and M.J. Berger: Energy loss stragglin of protons and mesons:
   Tabulation of the Vavilov distribution, pp 187-203
   in: National Research Council (U.S.), Committee on Nuclear Science:
   Studies in penetration of charged particles in matter,
   Nat. Akad. Sci. Publication 1133,
   Nucl. Sci. Series Report No. 39,
   Washington (Nat. Akad. Sci.) 1964, 388 pp.
   Available from
   <A HREF="http://books.google.de/books?id=kmMrAAAAYAAJ&lpg=PP9&pg=PA187#v=onepage&q&f=false">Google books</A>

   Therefore, for small values of \f$\kappa < 0.01\f$,
   pdf approaches the Landau distribution.

   For values \f$\kappa > 10\f$, the Gauss approximation should be used
   with \f$\mu\f$ and \f$\sigma\f$ given by Vavilov::mean(kappa, beta2)
   and sqrt(Vavilov::variance(kappa, beta2).

   For values \f$\kappa > 10\f$, the Gauss approximation should be used
   with \f$\mu\f$ and \f$\sigma\f$ given by Vavilov::mean(kappa, beta2)
   and sqrt(Vavilov::variance(kappa, beta2).

   The original Vavilov pdf is obtained by
   v.Pdf(lambdaV/kappa-log(kappa))/kappa.

   For detailed description see
   A. Rotondi and P. Montagna, Fast calculation of Vavilov distribution,
   <A HREF="http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0168-583X(90)90749-K">Nucl. Instr. and Meth. B47 (1990) 215-224</A>,
   which has been implemented in
   <A HREF="http://wwwasdoc.web.cern.ch/wwwasdoc/shortwrupsdir/g115/top.html">
   CERNLIB (G115)</A>.

   The class stores coefficients needed to calculate \f$p(\lambda; \kappa, \beta^2)\f$
   for fixed values of \f$\kappa\f$ and \f$\beta^2\f$.
   Changing these values is computationally expensive.

   The parameter \f$\kappa\f$ must be in the range \f$0.01 \le \kappa \le 12\f$.

   The parameter \f$\beta^2\f$ must be in the range \f$0 \le \beta^2 \le 1\f$.

   - 0.095us per call to Pdf, Cdf
   - 3.7us per first call to Quantile after SetKappaBeta2 or constructor
