Geant4 10.6-beta-01 Release Notes
---------------------------------
28 June 2019
Migration Notes & Main New Features
-----------------------------------
o Promoting pre-processor flags to fixed #defines in a new header
generated by CMake, reducing flags added to CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS.
o Reviewed G4PhysicsVector adding an additional Value() method option to
propagate down the known log-energy value. This helps avoiding log() calls
when log-vector is used.
o Enabled VecGeom wrapper for G4GenericPolycone. Requiring VecGeom-1.1.2.
o Added support for writing out assemblies envelopes in GDML.
o Added functionality in G4DynamicParticle to provide log-kinetic energy
value, computed only on demand if its stored value is not up-to-date with
the kinetic energy. Reviewed EM processes to select the target atom by
making use of the already known log-energy value in the log-vector access.
Providing measurable CPU speedup.
o Optimised step limitation in G4UrbanMscModel and modified lateral
displacement sampling.
o New helper class G4NIELCalculator, to compute NIEL in user stepping
action or sensitive detector code.
o Cross-sections: high energy extension of the neutrino-electron cross
sections, for both charged-current and neutral-current interactions
(M_W and M_Z propagator factors and Glashow resonance), for all neutrino
and anti-neutrino flavours.
o Extended hadron-nucleon cross-sections to charmed and bottom hadrons
(mesons and baryons).
o Use Glauber-Gribov cross-section for hyperons in hadron elastic physics.
o Added handling of UI thermalization model control in DNA physics lists.
o Removed tracking cut in hadron-elastic and use numerically safer
computation for very low-energy projectile.
o Use FTFP also for the annihilation at rest of neutral anti-hadrons.
o Added spontaneous fission channel in radioactive-decay.
o Enhanced UI commands to now return proper return code when they are not
successful.
o Added new gamma-nuclear model based on pre-compound de-excitation
o New set of UI commands and improvements in visualization.
Added new UI commands for view interpolation and centering.
o Introducing cloud drawing style in visualization, using kernel algorithms
for generating points on the surface of volumes, by-passing polyhedral
representations; the solid is being visualised by a polymarker of dots.
o Porting of code on gcc-9.1 series.
o Updated to CLHEP version 2.4.1.2.
o New data sets G4PARTICLEXS-2.0.

List of features and fixes included in this Beta release since 10.5.p01:
o Configuration:
-------------
+ CMake:
o Removed obsolete GEANT4_BUILD_MUONIC_ATOMS_IN_USE option
and associated configuration/compiler flags.

+ cross_sections
o G4NeutrinoElectronNcXsc, G4NeutrinoElectronTotXsc: high energy
extension of neutrino-electron cross sections, for both
charged-current and neutral-current interactions (M_W and M_Z

+ management
o G4HadronicInelasticProcess: removed default GHEISHA cross-section.
o G4EnergyRangeManager: fixed bug regarding the kinetic energy per
nucleon in the case of anti-nuclei (the bug was of little harm as one
single model, FTFP, is used for all energies in the case of anti-nuclei
projectiles).
o G4HadronicProcess: removed try/catch pattern from computation of mean
free path, removed final state random rotation.
+ models/cascade
o Fixed case for potential FPEs due to un-protected sqrt() in
G4NucleiModel::boundaryTransition().
+ models/coherent_elastic
o G4HadronElastic: removed tracking cut and use numerically safer
computation for very low-energy projectile. Improved description and
comments; added C++11 keywords.
Numerically safer treatment of the very rare cases in which cos(theta)
is either greater than 1.0 or smaller than -1.0 (in the first case, we
assume no interaction and the projectile keeps going unchanged; in the
second case, we assume that the projectile stops and its kinetic energy
is deposited locally, neglecting the recoil of the target nucleus).
Added protected variable pLocalTmax; added protection for zero energy
primary.
o Added new model class G4LowEHadronElastic.
o G4ChargeExchange: updated interfaces; added protection for zero energy
primary.
o G4ElasticHadrNucleusHE: make all data shared between threads.

+ models/de_excitation
o G4VEmissionProbability: use simple rejection.
o G4FermiFragment: fixed Coulomb barrier correction computation.

initialisation, 2- debug printout, 3- very detailed debug printout.
Addressing problem report #2098.
o G4CoulombBarrier: use G4NuclearRadii utility to compute nuclear radius.
o G4EvaporationChannel, G4EvaporationProbability, G4VEmissionProbability,
G4FermiDecayProbability: simplified algorithm to sample kinetic energy
of a fragment; minor code clean-up, removed commented lines.
+ models/lend

neutrino scattering.
+ models/management
o G4HadronicInteractionRegistry: fixed typo in comments, removed unused
Boolean flag.
+ models/particle_hp
o Fix to deal with incorrect excitation energy when charged particles are
emitted during neutron reaction. In G4ParticleHPInelasticCompFS,
changed method CompositeApply(), for very small excitation, change
level index from -1 to 0 only if incident and outgoing particles are
the same. Addressing problem report #1838.
o Fix to deal with un-incremented index of photons in
G4ParticleHPPhotonDist::GetPhotons(). Also cleaned up dead code
in that class. Addressing problem report #2167.
o G4ParticleHPChannelList: fixed bug in the momentum change (it has to
be a normalized 3-vector, but it was not) in the case where NeutronHP
could not find a proper reaction channel.
o G4ParticleHPInelasticCompFS: fix to avoid arbitrary number of target
nuclei being generated and slowing down multi-threaded operation.
Addressing problem report #2166.

G4LowEGammaNuclearModel.
o G4PreCompoundEmission, G4PreCompoundFragment, G4VPreCompoundFragment:
setup minimum number of points for probability integration to 4;
minor code clean-up.
+ models/radioactive_decay
o Added spontaneous fission channel: added new class G4SFDecay to handle
neutron and gamma generation using LLNL model. Read spontaneous fission
data from database, insert it into decay tables and instantiate
G4SFDecay.
o Fixed incorrect branching ratio sum for biased mode, to account for the
addition of N shell EC capture and spontaneous fission.
o G4RadioactiveDecayBase: added StreamInfo() method; updated to new
N shell EC; enable printout of parameters with G4VERBOSE in
BuildPhysicsTable().
o G4RadioactivationMessenger: removed obsolete "fast beta" option,
internal conversion option (not part of biasing) and atomic relaxation
option (not part of biasing). Added "analogueMC" option which was
forgotten when class was developed.
o G4RadioactiveDecayBaseMessenger: removed obsolete "fast beta" option.
o Replaced G4ExceptionDescription in loop with simple string at
exception time inG4RadioactiveDecay, G4RadioactiveDecayBase and
G4Radioactivation.
o In G4RadioactiveDecay::CalculateChainsFromParent() and
G4Radioactivation::CalculateChainsFromParent(), fixed memory leak of
'summedDecayTable' reported by Coverity.
o G4RadioactiveDecay, G4RadioactiveDecayBase: make sure decay table maps
are cleanly deleted at the end of program.
+ models/util
o G4NuclearRadii: new utility class with several parameterisations of
nuclear radius.
+ processes
o G4HadronElasticProcess: removed tracking cut for all particles (charged
particles may be stopped by the tracking cut of ionisation process;
neutrons should be stopped by G4NeutronKiller).
Added protection for zero energy primary. Removed final state rotation.
Removed default GHEISHA cross-section.
Clean up sampling of final state; improved description and comments;
added C++11 keywords; removed unused local members.
o G4MuNeutrinoNucleusProcess : new process managing
G4NuMuNucleusCc(Nc)Model models.
+ stopping
o G4HadronicAbsorptionFritof: extended to neutral anti-hadrons
(anti-neutron, anti-lambda, anti-sigma0 and anti-xi0). This extension
is for completeness and practical convenience, although physically
neutral hadrons should never be completely at rest.
+ util
o G4HadProjectile: clean-up for small kinetic energy of the projectile.
o G4HadFinalState, G4Bessel, G4ReactionProduct, G4GHEKinematicsVector:
replaced fabs() with abs().
o Track & Tracking
----------------
+ G4Track: added forward declaration for G4VProcess.
o Visualization:
-------------
+ Fixed compilation warnings on gcc-9.1.0.
+ management:
o Introducing cloud drawing style. New parameter candidate 'cloud' in
"/vis/viewer/set/style". Cloud drawing uses solid->GetPointOnSurface(),
i.e., uses kernel algorithms and by-passes polyhedral representations.
The solid is represented by a polymarker of dots. The default number of
points is 1000. This can be changed with the command
"/vis/viewer/set/numberOfCloudPoints"; the minimum number is 100.
Note that OpenGL has a fast algorithm for polymarker.
This allows us to use cloud style both as a choice or as fallback when
the polyhedral representation fails, for example, when BooleanProcessor
fails.
o New and improved commands:
/vis/viewer/centreOn: improved - it does not zoom.
/vis/viewer/centreAndZoomInOn: new.
/vis/touchable/centreOn: improved - it does not zoom.
/vis/touchable/centreAndZoomInOn: new.
/vis/touchable/extentForField and volumeForField: new.
/vis/scene/showExtents: new.
/vis/set/volumeForField: new.
/vis/touchable/showExtent: new.
o Added copy number parameter to "/vis/touchable/findPath".
o Implemented "/vis/set/extentForField" command: the default is a null
extent, which is to be interpreted by the field model as the whole
extent of the current scene. Otherwise, with this command, one can
limit the extent over which the field is drawn. This would help, for
example, if drawing over the whole scene produced so many arrows or
lines that it clutters the scene. Changed the default spacing:
the parameter 'nDataPointsPerHalfExtent' is changed from 10 to 3, so
as not to clutter the scene. See guidance of "/vis/scene/add/*Field"
commands for further explanation.
o Provide ability to draw electric fields, and eventually any other
field. Added "/vis/scene/add/electricField" by analogy to existing
.../magneticField.
o Refactor MagneticFieldModel class with new base to handle all kinds of
vector fields; existing, and new ElectricFieldModel only have to
implement a simple function to get the field vector at a location.
o Include parameterised volumes in overlap checking and visualisation
in G4LogicalVolumeModel (in addition to ordinary placements).
o Introduced "/vis/viewer/centreOn" and "/vis/touchable/centreOn" UI
commands. This allows one to centre the view (zoom in) on a volume.
Reset with "/vis/viewer/reset".
o Rationalised view interpolation; encapsulate algorithm into base class
G4VVisCommand, so that commands "/vis/viewer/interpolate",
"/vis/viewer/centreOn" and "/vis/touchable/centerOn" now use this.
Might consider use by all view changing commands.
o Fixed bug in "/vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane".
o Corrected few typos in printout/comments.
o Improved guidance for "/vis/scene/add/volume".
o Minor improvements to visualization manager.
o Fixed Boolean operators to return G4bool.
o Fixed Coverity defects.
+ modeling:
o Introduced G4BoundingExtentScene. This allows one to accumulate extents
using the newly introduced G4VisExtent::Transform() and is a better way
of determining the overall extent of a scene (or of any set of extents)
than by the bounding sphere approach.
o G4VFieldModel, G4ElectricFieldModel, G4MagneticFieldModel: new
abstraction for field models.
o Arrows and field models: introduced further protection.
o G4VModel: introduced GetTransformedExtent() method.
o G4PhysicalVolumeModel: use G4BoundingExtentScene instead of
G4BoundingSphereScene. Fixed bug whereby the local extent was
incorrectly calculated.
o Fixed bug in "/vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane".
o Added volume count (but commented out printing).
+ OpenGL:
o Force double buffer context for OGLIX.
o Force kernel visit on change of number of cloud points.
o Fixed bug in "/vis/viewer/set/sectionPlane".
o Avoid re-using display lists for markers. They may have their own
position relative to the overall object transformation.
+ OpenInventor:
o Test number of cloud points for kernel visit.
o Added missing protection on G4VIS_BUILD_OIX_DRIVER.
o Fixed compilation warning from gcc-9.1 in SoCounterAction for setting
of name, apparently not allowed in OpenInventor.
o Corrected few typos in printout/comments.
+ XXX:
o Force kernel visit on change of number of cloud points.
o Data Sets:
---------
+ G4PARTICLEXS-2.0:
o Added data for neutrino.
o Updated cross-sections for low Z targets at low energy.
o Examples:
--------

processes.
+ extended/biasing/B03
o B03PhysicsList: explicitly define hadronic cross-sections.
Use G4NeutronInelasticXS cross-section.
+ extended/electromagnetic/TestEm1
o Added G4NIELCalculator and corresponding histograms and printouts;
general clean-up of the code; use default random number generator.
+ extended/electromagnetic/TestEm5
o StackinAction: fixed log histograms, which where filled in a wrong way.

Geant4 10.4 - patch-03 Release Notes
------------------------------------
8 February 2019
List of fixes included in this public patch since the public release 10.4.p02:
o Configuration:
-------------
+ CMake:
o Corrected URLs for data installation to use https; added -L flag to curl
to follow redirects when accessing a dataset URL.
o Geant4MakeRules_cxx.cmake: added -DGL_SILENCE_DEPRECATION to
CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_INIT for clang to silence GL deprecation compilation
warnings on MacOS 10.14 Mojave.
+ GNUMake:
o Fixed setting of G4RUNPATHOPTION in Darwin/Linux-clang/g++ and binmake.cmk.
Addressing problem report #2086.
o Cleanup settings for GL in Darwin-clang.gmk and Darwin-g++.gmk.
Added -DGL_SILENCE_DEPRECATION to CPPFLAGS to silence GL deprecation
compilation warnings on MacOS 10.14 Mojave.
o Analysis:
--------
+ Fixed a deadlock issue with G4RootPNtupleManager where the mutex
was locked before being passed to Root.
+ Fixed compilation warnings on gcc-8.1.0.
o Geometry:
--------
+ management:
o Use reverse_iterator in G4SolidStore::DeRegister() in order to speedup
partial deregistration on setups with many solids instances.
o G4Region: added possibility to disable search in the tree in
AddRootLogicalVolume() for speeding up process in complex flat geometries.
o Global:
------
+ G4PhysicsVector, G4Physics2DVector: fixed possible out-of-bound access
in FindBin() method. Addressing problem report #2087.
+ Updated date and version for 10.4.p03.
o Interfaces:
----------
+ G4Xt: fixed compilation warnings for casts on gcc-8.1.
+ Fixed compilation warnings for not used return parameters.
o Persistency - gdml
------------------
+ Clear auxiliary map information in G4GDMLReadStructure::Clear().
Addressing problem report #2064.
+ Added stripping of invalid characters for names generation in writer classes
to prevent invalid NCName strings in exported GDML files. Adopt properly
stripped generated strings for exporting names of optical surfaces.
o Processes - Electromagnetic:
---------------------------
+ dna:
o Fixed header guards in G4ITFinder and G4AllITFinder.
Addressing problem report #2084.
+ standard:
o G4GoudsmitSaundersonTable: fixed gcc-8.1.0 compilation warnings.
+ utils:
o G4EmElementSelector: optimisation of element selection for compound
materials.
+ xrays:
o G4Cerenkov, G4Scintillation: correctly reset number of photons
to 0 each step. Addressing problem report #2056.
Added protection against infinite loops due to very small steps.
Addressing problem report #1992.
o Processes - Hadronic:
--------------------
+ management:
o G4HadronicProcess: added check if secondary particle is on the mass
shell; if its mass differ from the PDG mass more for 1.5 MeV then mass
is forced to the mass shell, energy conserved, but momentum is changed.
Use correct return type when calling CheckResult() from PostStepDoIt():
fixes case when the value of pointer 'result' does not get properly
reset to NULL in case a non-conservation is detected, thus "bad"
interaction does not get re-sampled.
Fixed compilation warnings on gcc-8.1.0 regarding catching polymorphic
type by value, instead of by reference.
o G4HadronicProcess, G4VLeadingParticleBiasing, G4HadLeadBias: fixed
compilation warning with gcc-7.
+ models/binary_cascade
o G4GeneratorPrecompoundInterface: fixed printout typo.
+ models/cascade:
o G4GDecay3: fixed problem reported by CMS due to wrong kinematics in
the final state by removing loop check; adding protection for low value
of mother mass.
+ models/de_excitation:
o G4LevelReader: fixed initialisation of 'fAlphaMax' from 1.e+6 to 1.e+15;
needed for correct IC probability of some isotopes.
Addresses problem reports #1986 and #2076, by change of handling of
internal conversion data.
+ models/particle_hp
o G4ParticleHPCaptureFS::ApplyYourself(): Lorentz boost of neutron into
target frame was backwards; reversed it. Also replaced SetDefinition()
with SetDefinitionAndUpdateE(). Addresses problem report #1919.
o Fixed definition of singletons for G4ParticleHPManager and
G4ParticleHPThreadLocalManager and some code cleanup.
Made G4ParticleHPThreadLocalManager a G4ThreadlLocalSingleton to avoid
memory leaks generated each time a thread creates the instance.
o Fixed bug for double allocation of G4ParticleHPReactionWhiteBoard in
G4ParticleHPThreadLocalManager::OpenReactionWhiteBoard().
o G4ParticleHPElementData: removed unnecessary inheritance from
G4HadronicCrossSection.
o Fixed incorrect sampling of isotropic distribution.
Addressing problem report #1745.
o Fixed gamma level mismatch in G4ParticleHPInelasticCompFS.
Not a complete fix because gamma data comes from ENSDF and does not
necessarily match excitations in ENDF.
Addressing problem report #1789.
o Fixed memory leaks in G4ParticleHPContEnergyAngular::Sample() and
G4ParticleHPContAngularPar::cacheInit().
Addressing problem report #2026.
o G4ParticleHPElasticFS::ApplyYourself(): use correct reference frames for
calculation of projectile and target momenta. Correction made for cases
when cos(Theta) is given in lab frame and in center of momentum frame.
Partial fix of momentum non-conservation for problem report #1918.
o Fixed potential leaks in G4ParticleHPPhotonDist, G4ParticleHPContAngularPar
and G4ParticleHPFinalState for use of pointers cached in G4Cache.
o G4ENDFTapeRead, G4FissionProductYieldDist: fixed compilation warnings
on gcc 8.1.0, regarding catching polymorphic type by value, instead of
by reference.
o Minor code cleanup and formatting.
+ models/parton_string/diffraction
o G4FTFAnnihilation: fix to get flat cos(theta) and phi distributions for
antiproton annihilation at rest.
+ models/rpg
o G4RPGAntiKZeroInelastic, G4RPGInelastic: fixed compilation warnings on
gcc-8.1.0, regarding catching polymorphic type by value, instead of by
reference.
+ processes:
o G4HadronElasticProcess, G4NeutrinoElectronProcess: fixed compilation
warnings on gcc 8.1.0, regarding catching polymorphic type by value,
instead of by reference.
+ stopping:
o G4HadronStoppingProcess, G4MuonicAtomDecay: fixed compilation warnings
on gcc 8.1.0, regarding catching polymorphic type by value, instead of
by reference.
o Processes - Scoring:
-------------------
o G4ParallelWorldProcess: fixed track velocity of optical photons for the
first step in a layered mass geometry.
o Examples:
--------
+ extended/fieldBlineTracer:
o Fixed compilation error for missing header inclusion.
