do_bhabhas bhabha treatment 0, 2 0 int 1 : reading bhabha.ini only, 2 : reading both bhabha.ini and bhabha_photon.ini
do_dump 0, 1 0 int dump particles and photons each step dump files are named b1.n, b2.n for particles and bp1.N, bp2.n for photons (n = number of the step) (see release note 1.0.6 )

polar_x 0., 1. 0. double effective only if bmt_precession
polar_y components of the initial polarization vector 0., 1. 0. double see release note 1.0.6
polar_z 0., 1. 1. double for use
rndm_seed value of the seed for random generation 0, infinity 0 long int
store_secondaries1 storing initial and final secondaries (pairs, bhabhas, compton...) 0, 1 0 int
track_secondaries2 tracking of secondaries (pairs, bhabhas, compton...) 0, 1 0 int
ST_spin_flip compute the depolarization due to Sokolov-Ternov spin flip, in beamstrahlung 0, 1 0 integer bmt_precession = 1 is mandatory

beam_crossing_angle presence of a crossing angle between the two beams 0,1 0 int without polarization
crossing_angle_value value of crossing angle (degrees) 0,infinity 0 double active only when beam_crossing_angle=1

1 replaces old keyword store_pairs; output files : secondaries0.dat and secondaries.dat

2 replaces old keyword track_pairs, output file : secondaries.dat (in place of pairs.dat)
