Minor fix of an EField parameter

[DuttaS12]

This pull request makes a targeted parameter adjustment in the src/integrals/integrals.cpp file. Specifically, it increases the value of the constant a from 11. to 500. in two functions. This change impacts the static electric field.

🟡 Changes recommended

The updated tuning parameter is still documented inconsistently/ambiguously in the touched code, which can mislead future maintenance of a behavior-critical constant.

Once you've addressed the issues Copilot identified, you can request another Copilot review.

Pull request overview

This pull request adjusts the smoothing/tuning constant used when reducing the electric-field components in reduce_Exyz and reduce_Exyz_2, increasing a from 11. to 500. to change the behavior of the exp(x^2/a) damping used in the E-field reduction.

Changes:

• Increased the local constant a from 11. to 500. in reduce_Exyz.
• Increased the local constant a from 11. to 500. in reduce_Exyz_2.

src/integrals/integrals.cpp:4284

• This is the same tuning parameter used in reduce_Exyz but without any explanation here; add a brief comment describing what it controls (exp(x^2/a) smoothing) to avoid future accidental divergence/misuse.

  const double a = 500.;
