Check e-field definition in `run_sim.sh` #36

Closed l-althueser closed 7 years ago

We have in run_sim.sh#L77 the following definition of the parameters, where the EFIELD is defined as V/cm for SR0 and kV/cm for SR1. I think that this is not correct and that we should check all involved parts of MC, nSort and FAX if the definition is consistent.
