+Ashik2 is the anisotropic reflectance model by Ashikhmin & Shirley.
+The string arguments are the same as for plastic2, but the real
+arguments have additional flexibility to specify the specular color.
+Also, rather than roughness, specular power is used, which has no
+physical meaning other than larger numbers are equivalent to a smoother
+surface.
+Unlike other material types, total reflectance is the sum of
+diffuse and specular colors, and should be adjusted accordingly.

 The first modifier will also be used to shade the area leaving the
 antimatter volume and entering the regular volume.
 If mod1 is void, the antimatter volume is completely invisible.
-Antimatter does not work properly with the material type "trans",
-and multiple antimatter surfaces should be disjoint.
+If shading is desired at antimatter surfaces, it is important

+Antimatter surfaces should not intersect with other antimatter boundaries,
