double	operator() (generator_t &generator, const Acts::MaterialProperties &slab, Particle &particle) const

Detailed Description

Generate scattering angles using the Highland/PDG parametrization.

The angles are drawn from a single normal distribution with a width given by the Highland/PDG formula.
