To maintain consistency, latexmath:[N] and `NPART` from the `BEAM` command
(see Chapter link:beam-command#chp.beam-command[Beam Command]) must be equal.
In the same way, when using a `FROMFILE` type distribution, the average
momentum of the distribution must coincide with the momentum specified in the
`BEAM` command by means of `GAMMA`, `ENERGY` or `PC` attributes
(see Section link:beam-command#sec.beam-command.beam-energy[Beam Energy]).
In _OPAL-t_, the given momentum in the `BEAM` command must coincide with the
z-component of the momentum of the particle distribution in the file.
On the other hand, in _OPAL-cycl_ the given momentum must coincide with the
total momentum of the particle distribution, taking into account that the
initial distribution in _OPAL-cycl_ is always specified in the
link:opalcycl#sec.opalcycl.localframe[local reference frame].
