|---|
| 8 | |
|---|
| 9 | o Configuration scripts: |
|---|
| 10 | --------------------- |
|---|
| 11 | + WIN32-VC.gmk, WIN32-VC7.gmk: |
|---|
| 12 | o reinstated options "-D_CONSOLE -D_WIN32 -DOS" to allow correct |
|---|
| 13 | treatment/opening of data files at run-time. |
|---|
| 14 | |
|---|
| 15 | o Electromagnetic processes (standard): |
|---|
| 16 | ------------------------------------ |
|---|
| 17 | + muons: |
|---|
| 18 | o Fixed bug of printout in G4MuIonisation. |
|---|
| 19 | |
|---|
| 20 | o Hadronic processes: |
|---|
| 21 | ------------------ |
|---|
| 22 | + models/chiral_inv_phase_space |
|---|
| 23 | o Added protection against a rounding problem in the CHIPS |
|---|
| 24 | evaporation. Fixes a problem observed in gamma-nuclear reactions. |
|---|
| 25 | + models/generator/de_excitation |
|---|
| 26 | o Fixed usage of arguments to pow() function (porting on |
|---|
| 27 | .NET 7.1 compiler). |
|---|
| 28 | + models/generator/quark_gluon_string |
|---|
| 29 | + models/generator/string_fragmentation |
|---|
| 30 | - Implemented the handling of diffractive photon scattering in |
|---|
| 31 | the parton string models. Mandatory for high energy gamma and |
|---|
| 32 | electro-nuclear reactions. |
|---|
| 33 | + models/neutron_hp: |
|---|
| 34 | o Corrected an error affecting the neutron energy distribution |
|---|
| 35 | in Fission. Mandatory for fission in Uranium 235. |
|---|
| 36 | + stopping: |
|---|
| 37 | o Fixed few cases of memory leaks occuring at every new run. |
|---|
| 38 | |
|---|
| 39 | o Particles: |
|---|
| 40 | --------- |
|---|
| 41 | + Add one void pointer to G4DynamicParticle for the sake of maintaining |
|---|
| 42 | links between pre-assigned decay products and corresponding primary |
|---|
| 43 | particle. |
|---|
| 44 | |
|---|
| 45 | o Transportation: |
|---|
| 46 | -------------- |
|---|
| 47 | + G4Transportation: |
|---|
| 48 | o Added verbosity level to control the printing of warnings. |
|---|
| 49 | o Attempt to correct photon problem by using the velocity from current |
|---|
| 50 | medium for massless particles. |
|---|
| 51 | o Use the finalVelocity to update TofF for optical photons. |
|---|
| 52 | |
|---|
| 53 | o Visualization: |
|---|
| 54 | ------------- |
|---|
| 55 | + RayTracer: |
|---|
| 56 | o Fixed incomplete migration to Cuts per Region scheme, causing |
|---|
| 57 | tracing process to crash in release 5.2. |
|---|
| 58 | |
|---|
| 59 | o Examples: |
|---|
| 60 | -------- |
|---|
| 61 | - Updated reference outputs. |
|---|
| 62 | - extended: |
|---|
| 63 | o eventgenerator/HepMC |
|---|
| 64 | + fixed compilation errors due to incorrect code migration from |
|---|
| 65 | g4std wrappers. |
|---|
| 66 | + fixed pedantic compilation warnings on Linux-g++. |
|---|
| 67 | o gdml |
|---|
| 68 | + Fixed trivial compilation errors originated by recent g4std |
|---|
| 69 | migration. |
|---|
| 70 | + Fixed pedantic compilation warnings on Linux-g++. |
|---|
| 71 | o g3tog4 |
|---|
| 72 | + Fixed pedantic compilation warnings on Linux-g++. |
|---|
| 73 | o parallel |
|---|
| 74 | + Fixed pedantic compilation warnings on Linux-g++. |
|---|
| 75 | |
