class SourceLambertDistributionOnSphere : public SourceFeature

Uniform random position on a sphere with isotropic Lamberts distributed directions.

This function should be used for crosschecking the arrival distribution for a Galactic propagation with an isotropic arrival distribution at the Edge of our Galaxy. Note, that for simulation speed you should rather use the backtracking technique: see e.g. http://physik.rwth-aachen.de/parsec
