// Illustration how to generate various two-body channels from 
// astroparticle processes, e.g. neutralino annihilation or decay.
// To this end a "blob" of energy is created with unit cross section,
// from the fictitious collision of two non-radiating incoming e+e-.
// In the accompanying main29.cmnd file the decay channels of this
// blob can be set up. Furthermore, only gamma, e+-, p/pbar and
// neutrinos are stable, everything else is set to decay.
// (The "single-particle gun" of main21.cc offers another possible 
// approach to the same problem.)
