Calculations show errors in fields for beams with very low energy (eg, electrons << 1 MeV).

Double-check, eg, normalization factors of beta that become important at very low energy.

We believe this is resolved.
While testing three weeks ago for our space charge benchmarks, we mismatched kinetic and total energy in one of our input files.

We could rename the set_energy and energy parameters in input files to set_kin_energy to be explicit (currently only the doc string reveals this detail). I'll post a PR: #446
