35// Class description:
36//
37// G4CoupledTransportation is an optional process to transport
38// a particle, in case of coupled navigation in parallel geometries
39// i.e. the geometrical propagation will be done
40// encountering the geometrical volumes of the detectors and
41// those of parallel geometries (eg for biasing, scoring, fast simulation)
42// It is tasked with updating the "safety" to reflect the geometrical
43// distance to the nearest volume, and the time of flight of the particle.
