| 309 | Barkas effect at low energies (before the effect was simulated at
|
|---|
| 310 | higher energies in G4BetheBlochModel).
|
|---|
| 311 | The high energy limit for the new model is the same as for G4BraggModel
|
|---|
| 312 | (2 MeV for protons/anti-protons).
|
|---|
| 313 | o G4WentzelOKandVIxSection: new class to compute cross sections and
|
|---|
| 314 | sample scattering angle.
|
|---|
| 315 | o G4WentzelVIModel, G4eCoulombScatteringModel, G4CoulombScatteringModel:
|
|---|
| 316 | use new class G4WentzelOKandVIxSection.
|
|---|
| 317 | o G4WentzelVIModel: optimized method of step limitation.
|
|---|
| 318 | o G4WentzelVIModel, G4eCoulombScatteringModel: added momentum dependent
|
|---|
| 319 | limit of scattering angle between single and multiple scattering which
|
|---|
| 320 | allows to use G4WentzelVIModel with optical model of hadron scattering.
|
|---|
| 321 | o G4PAIModel, G4PAIPhotonModel: added printout for the model
|
|---|
| 322 | initialisation.
|
|---|
| 323 | o Removed obsolete models: G4UrbanMscModel, G4UrbanMscModel2,
|
|---|
| 324 | G4UrbanMscModel71, G4MultipleScattering, G4ComptonScattering52,
|
|---|
| 325 | G4PolarizedComptonScattering.

|---|
| 327 | o G4VMscModel, G4VMultipleScattering: set skin=1.0 as default.
|
|---|
| 328 | o G4LossTableManager: added new method GetNumberOfBinsPerDecade(), which
|
|---|
| 329 | is used in G4VEmModel for initialisation of G4EmElementSelector.
|
|---|
| 330 | Addressing problem report #1115.
|
|---|
| 331 | Added methods PreparePhsyicsTables(), BuildPhysicsTables(), fixing

|
|---|
| 341 | o G4VEmModel: added method ChargeSquareRatio() to access current charge
|
|---|
| 342 | of an ion; use this method in G4VEnergyLossProcess.
|
|---|
| 343 | o G4VEnergyLossProcess: call CorrectionsAlongStep() only for ions (minor
|
|---|
| 344 | CPU saving). Use the same method to build cross section table
|
|---|
| 345 | as DEDX table (use copy constructors to reduce number of calls to exp()).
|
|---|
| 346 | o G4EmCalculator: fix in GetCrossSection() method.
|
|---|
| 347 | o G4EmElementSelector: use Spline flag to construct vectors probabilities.
|
|---|
| 348 | o G4EmModelManager: do not use min energy cut defined by models, so
|
|---|
| 349 | production threshold is defined only by range to energy conversion and
|
|---|
| 350 | is limited only by low limit of energy threshold defined in 'cut'
|
|---|
| 351 | category.
|
|---|
| 352 | o G4EmConfigurator: fix for case of more than one model added per a
|

|
|---|

|
|---|
| 378 | G4IntraNuclearCascader, G4InuclCollider, G4NucleiModel, G4Fissioner,
|
|---|
| 379 | G4EquilibriumModel and G4NonEquilibriumModel.
|
|---|
| 380 | G4Fissioner still uses Bertini method bindingEnergyAsymptotic().
|
|---|
| 381 | o G4Diproton, G4Dineutron, G4UnboundPN: new G4ParticleDefinition
|
|---|
| 382 | subclasses, which implement the Bertini-specific dibaryon states.
|
|---|
| 383 | o G4ElementaryParticleCollider: replaced original (incorrect) pp, pn, nn
|
|---|
| 384 | 2-body to 2-body scattering angular distributions with a new
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 386 | exponentials.
|
|---|
| 387 | o Improved angular distributions for 2-body final states of pi-nucleon,

|
|---|
| 393 | events.
|

|
|---|
| 397 | o CPU speed improvements from the removal of unnecessary class
|
|---|
| 398 | instantiations.. Code re-organization to permit more speed improvements

|
|---|
| 415 | o Correction in G4QElastic for K0 elastic cross-sections.
|
|---|
| 416 | o Corrected treatment of vacuum in fragmentation module.
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 418 | N neutrons (A=N, Z=0) are decayed in G4QLowEnergy.
|
|---|
| 419 | o Bug-fix in G4QLowEnergy: pions as secondaries.
|
|---|
| 420 | o Bug-fix in K0 elastic & Ion-Ion Elastic.
|
|---|
| 421 | + models/coherent_elastic
|
|---|
| 422 | o Use G4Q(Proton/Neutron)ElasticCrossSection instead of
|
|---|
| 423 | G4QElasticCrossSection; fixed initialization problem for
|
|---|
| 424 | G4QNeutronElasticCrossSection.
|
|---|
| 425 | o G4UHadronElasticProcess: fixed CHIPS warning for Cu, due to wrong
|
|---|
| 426 | isotope sected; addressing problem report from ALICE.
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 428 | o G4StatMFMacroTemperature: cleanup logic of solving equation for
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 435 | o G4UnstableFragmentBreakUp: new class to decay exotic fragment
|

| 436 | (like 2n or 2p).
|
|---|
| 437 | o G4DiscreteGammaTransition: make transition depended on Z and A (before
|
|---|
| 438 | was only Z) and added energy tolerance
|

| 439 | o G4VGammaDeexcitation: rewritten kinematic of 2-body decay.
|
|---|
| 440 | Fix to take into account electron mass in the case of electron emission.
|
|---|
| 441 | Take into account bounding energy of electron in the case of electron
|
|---|
| 442 | emission; fixed kinematic.
|
|---|
| 443 | o G4DiscreteGammaTransition, G4DiscreteGammaDeexcitation,
|
|---|
| 444 | G4ContinuumGammaDeexcitation: set energy tolerance 1 keV. More accurate
|
|---|
| 445 | Lorentz computations. Define destructors to be virtual.
|
|---|
| 446 | o G4DiscreteGammaTransition: removed unphysical corrections of gamma
|
|---|
| 447 | energy; fixed default particle as gamma; avoid subtracting binding
|
|---|
| 448 | energy in case of electron emission.
|
|---|
| 449 | o G4ExcitationHandler: apply FermiBreakUp to fragments with A>1 (before
|
|---|
| 450 | was A>4) in order to reduce number of fake gamma produced in
|
|---|
| 451 | deexcitation of light fragments; added parameter 'minExcitation' equal
|
|---|
| 452 | to 1 keV. Added check on stability of primary; do evaporation if
|
|---|
| 453 | FermiBreakUp cannot deexcite a fragment. Added SetParameters() method.
|
|---|
| 454 | o G4Evaporation: rewritten BreakUp() method; added Initialise() method at
|
|---|
| 455 | construction, to setup all options and not at run time.
|
|---|
| 456 | Added InitialiseEvaporation() method to setup decay channels; changed
|
|---|
| 457 | order of decay channels: first photon evaporation, then fission,
|
|---|
| 458 | finally all other channels as before. Improved condition on how to
|
|---|
| 459 | stop deexcitation loop.
|
|---|
| 460 | Added call to G4UnstableFragmentBreakUp if natural abundances of cold
|
|---|
| 461 | fragment is zero and Z < 20; optimized logic of stopping of evaporation
|
|---|
| 462 | loop. Set as a default variant evaporation combining standard plus GEM
|

|
|---|
| 464 | o G4PhotonEvaporation: added correction of electron state after emission.
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 474 | G4GEMProbability: corrected inclusion of headers.
|
|---|
| 475 | o G4E1Probability: code cleanup and optimisation by usage of G4Pow,
|
|---|
| 476 | integer A and introduction of const members. Added numerical protection
|
|---|
| 477 | to avoid division by zero.
|
|---|
| 478 | o G4GEMProbability: fixed numerical problem (division by zero), code
|
|---|
| 479 | cleanup and optimisation by usage of G4Pow and integer Z,A.
|
|---|
| 480 | o Code cleanup. Moved constructors and destructors to source files for
|
|---|
| 481 | virtual interfaces.
|
|---|
| 482 | + models/im_r_matrix
|
|---|
| 483 | o Removed empty source file for G4VScatterer.
|
|---|
| 484 | Synchronised developments to HEAD version.
|
|---|
| 485 | + models/incl
|
|---|
| 486 | o Nuclear deformation and shell effect data reader now constructs the
|
|---|
| 487 | corresponding data tables correctly.
|
|---|
| 488 | o Added some internal logging facilities to INCL (disabled by default).
|
|---|
| 489 | o Added missing virtual destructor to base classes where necessary.
|
|---|
| 490 | + models/management
|
|---|
| 491 | o G4HadronicInteraction: added two methods, GetEnergyMomentumCheckLevels()
|
|---|
| 492 | and SetEnergyMomentumCheckLevels() in order to implement checking
|
|---|
| 493 | of energy/momentum conservation.
|
|---|
| 494 | o G4VPreCompoundModel: moved constructor and destructor to source.
|
|---|
| 495 | + models/neutron_hp
|
|---|
| 496 | o Modified sampling in G4NeutronHPInelasticCompFS.
|
|---|
| 497 | o Fix bug about incidence energy in G4NeutronHPEnAngCorrelation.
|
|---|
| 498 | + models/parton_string/diffraction
|
|---|
| 499 | o Added missing virtual destructor to G4DiffractiveHHScatterer.
|
|---|
| 500 | + models/parton_string/hadronization
|
|---|
| 501 | o Improved Lund string fragmentation.
|
|---|
| 502 | o Fixed inconsistency between LightFragmentationTest and Lund
|
|---|
| 503 | fragmentation. Fixed problems of energy non-conservation in FTF.
|
|---|
| 504 | + models/parton_string/qgsm
|
|---|
| 505 | o Remove unused class G4PartonStringAnnihilator.
|
|---|
| 506 | + models/pre_equilibrium
|
|---|
| 507 | o G4PreCompoundModel: moved constructor and destructor to source.
|
|---|
| 508 | o Removed unused dummy classes G4VPreCompoundIon and
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 510 | o G4PreCompoundProton, G4PreCompoundDeuteron, G4PreCompoundTriton,
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 512 | OPT3 (Kalbach) parameterization of inverse cross section.
|
|---|
| 513 | + models/radioactive_decay
|
|---|
| 514 | o G4RadioactiveDecay:
|
|---|
| 515 | - In LoadDecayTable() create a decay table for isomers not included
|
|---|
| 516 | in RDM database and assume they all under go IT decay.
|
|---|
| 517 | - After DoDecay() check if there is any secondary produced.
|
|---|
| 518 | Kill the track if not to prevent infinite loop.
|
|---|
| 519 | - Insert a special treatment for K-40 beta decay; applied SetICM(),
|
|---|
| 520 | SetARM() and SetHLThreshold() to a decay channel.
|
|---|
| 521 | Addresses problem report #1068.
|
|---|
| 522 | - Make sure the propertime is positive; negative case occures when the
|
|---|
| 523 | isomer is not in RDM database and its f-l is set to -1 by default.
|
|---|
| 524 | - Corrected typo in declaration.
|
|---|
| 525 | o G4NuclearDecayChannel: added initialisation to all three constructors.
|
|---|
| 526 | o G4RadioactiveDecay, G4NuclearDecayChannel:
|
|---|
| 527 | - Limit the shell index to < 7, as required by the ARM. Changed to use
|
|---|
| 528 | BreakUp() rather than BreakItUp() so to limit to one transition per
|
|---|
| 529 | step when ICM is applied. Addresses problem report #1001.
|
|---|
| 530 | - Added private member data 'applyICM', 'applyARM' and
|
|---|
| 531 | 'halflifethresold' with their modifiers.
|
|---|
| 532 | o G4RadioactiveDecayMessenger: added the UI commands for SetICM, SETARM
|
|---|
| 533 | and SetHLThreshold.
|
|---|
| 534 | + models/util
|
|---|
| 535 | o G4Fragment: do not add any shift to excitation energy but use direct
|
|---|
| 536 | computation (this is needed to avoid infinite loop in gamma
|
|---|
| 537 | deexcitation); use G4NucleiProperties to access or compute ground
|
|---|
| 538 | state mass. Allow e- as a fragment.
|
|---|
| 539 | Added inline method ComputeGroundStateMass(); added accessors for
|
|---|
| 540 | integer Z and A; added ExcitationEnergyWarning() method.
|
|---|
| 541 | Minor speedup by adding member and access method to GroundStateMass.
|
|---|
| 542 | Some code cleanup: single return in inline methods.
|
|---|
| 543 | + util
|
|---|
| 544 | o Added interface for integer A&Z to G4Nucleus, and modified G4LightMedia,
|
|---|
| 545 | G4HadronicWhiteBoard and G4ReactionDynamics to use the new interface.
|
|---|
| 546 |
|
|---|
| 547 | o Optical Processes:
|
|---|
| 548 | -----------------
|
|---|
| 549 | + Fix for backpainted surfaces to avoid applying twice reflectivity.
|
|---|
| 550 | Addressing problem report #1114.
|
|---|
| 551 | + Refashioned code in the case of type 'dielectric_dielect'.
|
|---|
| 552 | + Fixed sampling of 'theFacetNormal' for 'polishedbackpainted' material
|
|---|
| 553 | in G4OpBoundaryProcess::DielectricDielectric() method. Address problem
|
|---|
| 554 | reported on Hypernews Optical Processes Forum, thread #334.
|
|---|
| 555 | + Modified G4OpBoundaryProcess to call ProposeLocalEnergyDeposit() every
|
|---|
| 556 | time a photon is in 'fStopAndKill' state because of NoRINDEX. This will
|
|---|
| 557 | trigger scoring when a photon encounters a volume not defined as an
|
|---|
| 558 | optical medium.
|
|---|
| 559 |
|
|---|
| 560 | o Run
|
|---|
| 561 | ---
|
|---|
| 562 | + Corrected printing of number of events processed on run abortion.
|
|---|
| 563 | + Fixed definition of path for Windows in G4RunManager for random seeds
|
|---|
| 564 | directory: use '\' instead of '/' and suitable system command.
|
|---|
| 565 | + Use "const G4String&" as arguments and return value wherever applicable
|
|---|
| 566 | in G4RunManager and G4RunManagerKernel.
|
|---|
| 567 |
|
|---|
| 568 | o Tracking
|
|---|
| 569 | --------
|
|---|
| 570 | + G4VTrajectory, G4Trajectory, G4SmoothTrajectory: added deprecation
|
|---|
| 571 | message, being printed via G4Exception only once, and only if a user
|
|---|
| 572 | invokes with a non-zero value of 'i_mode' in DrawTrajectory().
|
|---|
| 573 |
|
|---|
| 574 | o Visualization:
|
|---|
| 575 | -------------
|
|---|
| 576 | + management:
|
|---|
| 577 | o Added new "/vis/open" command for OpenGL viewers, "/vis/open OGL".
|
|---|
| 578 | This new form allows the same macro to be used whether one is on
|
|---|
| 579 | Linux or Windows (calling OGLSX on Linux and OGLSWin32 on Windows).
|
|---|
| 580 | When the application has been built with Qt, it will use the Qt form
|
|---|
| 581 | of OpenGL; when built with Motif, it will use the Motif form of OpenGL.
|
|---|
| 582 | Also added options OGLI and OGLS to force Immediate or Stored modes.
|
|---|
| 583 | The user is still free to use the older, specific viewer names, such
|
|---|
| 584 | as OGLIX, but the simple form, OGL, will give the most portable macros.
|
|---|
| 585 | o Added new "/vis/open" command for OpenInventor, "/vis/open OI".
|
|---|
| 586 | This new form allows the same macro to be used whether one is on Linux
|
|---|
| 587 | or Windows (calling OIX on Linux and OIWin32 on Windows).
|
|---|
| 588 | o Added "/vis/scene/add/digis" and "/vis/filtering/digi" commands,
|
|---|
| 589 | analogous to the already-existing commands "/vis/scene/add/hits" and
|
|---|
| 590 | "/vis/filtering/hits". As with hits, it remains the user's
|
|---|
| 591 | responsibility to provide the digitisation classes.
|
|---|
| 592 | Added method AddCompound(const G4VDigi&) to drivers.
|
|---|
| 593 | o Introduced DispatchToModel without 'i_mode'. The archaic form
|
|---|
| 594 | G4VTrajectory::DrawTrajectory(i_mode) is replaced by the newer form,
|
|---|
| 595 | G4VTrajectory::DrawTrajectory(). 'i_mode' used to be a parameter to
|
|---|
| 596 | control whether the trajectory was drawn as a line, a line plus step
|
|---|
| 597 | points, or only step points:
|
|---|
| 598 | - i_mode > 0 meant draw lines and points, size of points in
|
|---|
| 599 | pixels = abs(i_mode)/1000
|
|---|
| 600 | - i_mode = 0 meant draw only lines
|
|---|
| 601 | - i_mode < 0 meant draw only points, size of points in
|
|---|
| 602 | pixels = abs(i_mode)/1000
|
|---|
| 603 | Since release 8.1, better control has been available from the command
|
|---|
| 604 | "/vis/modeling/trajectories". Since release 5.0, 'i_mode' less than
|
|---|
| 605 | 1000 has in fact drawn no points and 'i_mode' of 1000 has drawn points
|

| 748 | Migration Notes
|
|---|
| 749 | ---------------
|
|---|
| 750 |
|
|---|
| 751 | o Obsolete classes G4MultipleScattering, G4UrbanMscModel and G4UrbanMscModel2
|
|---|
| 752 | are removed in this release; multiple-scattering particle-based processes,
|
|---|
| 753 | G4eMultipleScattering, G4hMultipleScattering and G4MuMultipleScattering are
|
|---|
| 754 | now mandatory; G4UrbanMscModel93 is now introduced.
|
|---|
| 755 | o The visualization trajectory modeling command
|
|---|
| 756 | "/vis/modeling/trajectories/create/drawByParticleID"
|
|---|
| 757 | used to default all trajectories to grey, with the user having to
|
|---|
| 758 | explicitly set any other color code. While the user can still set any
|
|---|
| 759 | wished color code, the default has been improved to:
|
|---|
| 760 | [e-/red; e+/blue; proton/cyan; gamma/green; neutron/yellow;
|
|---|
| 761 | pi+,pi-,pi0/magenta; other/grey].
|
|---|
| 762 | o In some examples, visualization that used to draw trajectories as simple
|
|---|
| 763 | lines now also draws step points. Users who wish to disable step point
|
|---|
| 764 | drawing can do so by commenting out a line in the visualization macro.
