Description
-----------
    
    As a particle ionizes the gas in an NCD the ionization track 
    will not be exactly straight.  The straggling describes the 
    characteristic deviation of the particle from a straight path 
    as a function of energy.  These values come from SRIM 2003.
    There is one bank for each particle type (proton, triton and alpha)

Notes
-----

There are three instances of the NCST bank in ncd_straggling.dat. 
Bank 1 is for protons, 2 for tritons and 3 for alphas.
