\class    genie::StrumiaVissaniIBDPXSec

\brief    An implementation of the neutrino - (free) nucleon [inverse beta
          decay] cross section, valid from the threshold energy (1.806MeV)
          up to hundreds of MeV. Currently cut off at 1/2 nucleon mass.
                Based on the Strumia/Vissani paper Phys.Lett.B564:42-54,2003
