shape will effectively stretch along its direction due to refraction and the actual focus will be further away from the
source.
*`beam_convergence_angle`: max angle between tracks and `beam_direction`. Needs to be specified for a `converging` beam.

*`output_plots`: if set `true`, this module will produce histograms to monitor beam shape and also 3D distributions of
charges, deposited in each detector. Histograms would look sensible even for one-event runs. Defaults to `false`.

*`absorption_length` and `refractive_index`: if both are specified, they override corresponding values from the lookup table. This also allows use of sensor materials other than silicon.

## Usage
A simulation pipeline to build an analog detector response would include `DepositionLaser`, `TransientPropagation` and
