 This GENIE code was adapted from the neugen3 code co-authored by Donna Naples
 (Pittsburgh U.), Hugh Gallagher (Tufts U), and Costas Andreopoulos (RAL)
 
 A fix was installed (Aug 12, 2014) by Brian Tice (Rochester) so that
 the nuclear modification to the pdf should be calculated in terms
 of the experimental x, not the rescaled x. The same goes for R(x,Q2).
 
 A fix of the scaling variable used for the relations between structure
 functions was installed by C. Bronner and J. Morrison Jun 06, 2016
 after it was confirmed by A. Bodek that x and not the modified
 scaling variable should be used there.
 
 Changes required to implement the GENIE Boosted Dark Matter module
 were installed by Josh Berger (Univ. of Wisconsin)

  // Rules of thumb
  // ---------------------------------------
  // - For W+ exchange use: -1/3|e| quarks and -2/3|e| antiquarks
  // - For W- exchange use:  2/3|e| quarks and  1/3|e| antiquarks
  // - For each qi -> qj transition multiply with the (ij CKM element)^2
  // - Use isospin symmetry to get neutron's u,d from proton's u,d
  //    -- neutron d = proton u
  //    -- neutron u = proton d
  // - Use u = usea + uvalence. Same for d
  // - For s,c use q=qbar
  // - For t,b use q=qbar=0
