37// Version:     1.0
38// Created:     1998-11-07
39// Author:      Peter Gumplinger
40// Updated:     2005-07-28 add G4ProcessType to constructor
41//              2002-11-21 change to user G4Poisson for small MeanNumPotons
42//              2002-11-07 allow for fast and slow scintillation
43//              2002-11-05 make use of constant material properties
44//              2002-05-16 changed to inherit from VRestDiscreteProcess
45//              2002-05-09 changed IsApplicable method
46//              1999-10-29 add method and class descriptors
