/**
 * \class Gyoto::Astrobj::UniformSphere
 * \brief Optically thick or thin, spherical objects
 *
 *  Gyoto::Astrobj::UniformSphere is an abstract type from which
 *  uniform, spherical objects inherit (in particular, the
 *  Gyoto::Astrobj::Star and Gyoto::Astrobj::FixedStar classes).
 *
 *  These objects are coordinate-spherical: they comprise all the
 *  points within a given radius from a centre. The distance is the
 *  usual Euclidian distance in a Cartesian coordinate system which is
 *  trivially determined by the coordinate system in which the Metric
 *  is expressed.
 *
 *  The sphere is in solid motion: all the points have the same
 *  4-velocity. The centre of the sphere may move. This motion and the
 *  velocity are provided by the derived classes through the
 *  getCartesian() and getVelocity() methods.
 *
 *  The spheres can be optically thick or optically thin. In the
 *  optically thin case, the opacity law provided as a Gyoto::Spectrum
 *  also sets both the emissivity. Another Gyoto::Spectrum provides
 *  the emission law of the source, which is uniform.
 *
 *  Gyoto::Astrobj::UniformSphere::setParameters() take care of
 *  interpreting the XML elements describing the parameters of the
 *  sphere:
 *  \code
 *     <Radius> value </Radius>
 *     <Spectrum kind="..."> parameters for this spectrum kind </Spectrum>
 *     <Opacity kind="..."> parameters for this spectrum kind </Opacity>
 *
 *     The following are numerical parameters mostly usefull when the
 *     sphere is far from the compact object. Larger values speed up
 *     computation but may miss the sphere.
 *     <DeltaMaxOverRadius> 0.1 </DeltaMaxOverRadius>
 *     <DeltaMaxOverDistance> 0.1 </DeltaMaxOverDistance>
 *  \endcode
 * setGenericParameters() also takes care of calling
 * setParameter().
