7List of fixes included in this public patch since the public release 8.1:
8
9  o Geometry:
10    --------
11    + management
12      o Fixed problem in G4Region::ScanVolumeTree() for volume scanning
13        related to nested parameterisations.
14
15  o Particles:
16    ---------
17    + Code cleanup for G4PrimaryVertex class.
18
19  o Electromagnetic processes:
20    -------------------------
21    + muons:
22      o G4EnergyLossForExtrapolator: fixed misprint in name for method
23        EnergyDispersion().
24    + utils:
25      o Do not clear loss table map in G4LossTableManager to avoid crash
26        for activation/desactivation of regime with ion gun.
27        Propagating 'RandomStep' flag to processes.
28
29  o Hadronic Processes:
30    ------------------
31    + models/chiral_inv_phase_space/body:
32      o Bug fix in QGSC for redefenition of Chipolino.
33      o Fixed light Cone Boost bug, causing the error message from vectors.
34    + models/coherent_elastic:
35      o Fixed problem in rotation of final state which needs to be done in
36        PostStep of the process and not at model level.
37      o Removed 1 keV limit from G4UHadronElasticProcess.
38    + models/radioactive_decay
39      o G4NuclearDecayChannel::BetaDecayIt(): make additional check for
40        negative sqrt() argument in 'daughtermomentum[1]'.
41
42  o Physics Lists:
43    -------------
44    + Fixed initialisation problem for QBBC_HP
45    + Corrected flag for HP regime in G4HadronElasticPhysics() to be 'true'
46      for LHEP_HP and QGSP_HP.
47    + Added G4NeutronHPElasticData in HP physics lists for hadron elastic
48      physics.
49    + Added cout of list of processes and models for QBBC.
50
51
52  o Examples:
53    --------
54    + Updated reference outputs.
55    + advanced/composite_calorimeter
56      o Updated hadronic physics list to be consistent with validation runs.
57    + advanced/lAr_calorimeter
58      o Updated hadronic physics list to be consistent with validation runs.
59      o Fixed few problems of use of non-initialised variables.
60      o Fixed compilation problems on gcc-4.X.
61    + advanced/hadrontherapy
62      o Corrected hadronic physics list for Precompund model.
63    + advanced/radioprotection
64      o Added missing inclusion of G4UItcsh.hh inside main().
65    + extended/eventgenerator/HepMC
66      o Updated physics lists to conform with non-static particles.
67    + extended/parallel/ParN02
68    + extended/parallel/ParN04
69      o Updated physics lists to conform with non-static particles.
