//  Utility class to generate n-body event,
//  with constant cross-section (default)
//  or with Fermi energy dependence (opt="Fermi").
//  The event is generated in the center-of-mass frame, 
//  but the decay products are finally boosted
//  using the betas of the original particle.
//
//  The code is based on the GENBOD function (W515 from CERNLIB)
//  using the Raubold and Lynch method
