.. note::
The exact insertion procedure depends on many factors (e.g. the range of
diameters inserted or whether molecules are being inserted). However, in
the simplest scenario of monodisperse atoms, the procedure works as
follows. First, the number of timesteps between two insertion events is
calculated as the time for a particle to fall through the insertion region,
accounting for gravity and any region motion. Next, the target number of
particles inserted per event (assuming no failed insertions due to overlaps)
is calculated as the product of the volume fraction and the volume of the
insertion region divided by the volume of a particle (or area in 2D).
Events are repeated until all N particles have been inserted, where
the final event is likely interrupted upon reaching N. Estimates of this
process are printed to the log/screen at the start of a run.
