Isotropic Distribution (ISO; index=0 or 1)

In this case, the electron distribution does not depend on pitch-angle, that is

g(m)=1/2

The ISO distribution may be selected from the pull-down menu or by assigning the DIST_ANG= 0 or 1 in the editable Parameter Table .

For the provided library MW _Transfer: the use of indices 0 and 1 yields equivalent results, given all other parameters are identical.

For the provided library GS_Transfer: the use of index 1 yields the result computed according to the new continuous code, while the use of index 0 activates the original (less accurate but the fastest) Petrosian-Klein code.
