"Continuous processes act on adjoint particles to continuously correct their "
"weight during the adjoint reverse tracking. This process is needed when "
"the adjoint cross sections are not scaled such that the total adjoint cross "
"section matches the total forward cross section. By default the mode where "
"the total adjoint cross section is equal to the total forward cross section "
"is used and therefore this along step weightcorrection factor is 1. However "
"in some cases (some energy ranges) the total forward cross section or the "
"total adjoint cross section can be zero. In this case the along step weight "
"correction is needed and is given by exp(-(Sigma_tot_adj-Sigma_tot_fwd).dx)"
