 * @class GModelRadialShell
 *
 * @brief Shell source model class
 *
 * This class implements the spatial component of the factorised source
 * model for a shell source (can be used e.g. as a toy supernova remnant
 * model). The shell is simply the volume between an inner and outer radius
 * (a large sphere with a smaller sphere cut out) with constant volume
 * emissivity and no absorption. To determine the surface brightness
 * distribution on the sky, the shell is analytically integrated along lines
 * of sight.
 * The shell is parametrised by the inner shell radius and the shell width.
 * Obviously, the shell width has to be a positive quantity. To assure
 * positivity, 1 arcsec is added internally to the shell width. This should
 * be negligible compared to shell widths encountered (and detectable) in
 * the gamma-ray domain, and improves the convergence of the fitting
 * algorithms.
