------------------------------------
|
|

|
21 March 2025
|
|
|
|
List of fixes included in this public patch since the public release 11.3.0:
|
|
|
|
o Analysis
|
|
--------
|
|
+ Fix to qualify use of G4Accumulables namespace to avoid clashes and order
|
|
dependence of inclusion of headers.
|
|
+ Removed false warnings about non-existing n-tuple and removed debug messages
|
|
when filling inactivated n-tuple.
|
|
|
|
o Event
|
|
-----
|
|
+ Fixed cut&paste error in G4StackManager::TransferStackedTracks(..),
|
|
reported by Coverity.
|
|
|
|
o Externals
|
|
---------
|
|
+ CLHEP:
|
|
o Properly export static symbols in RandFlat for DLL build support on Windows.
|
|
|
|
o Geometry
|
|
--------
|
|
+ magnetic_field:
|
|
o Added missing guard in G4TMagFieldEquation header and minor cleanup.
|
|
Fixes [GitHub PR #83](https://github.com/Geant4/geant4/pull/83).
|
|
+ management:
|
|
o In G4GeometryManager, fix in ConfigureParallelOptimisation() to reset
|
|
logical volumes iterator; in ReportWorkerIsDoneOptimising(), added checks
|
|
to report fatal error if incorrect number of volumes was voxelised, and warns
|
|
if number of workers reporting is not as expected.
|
|
In ConfigureParallelOptimisation(), reports on the times it was called.
|
|
Applied clang-tidy and some code cleanup; moved additional checks/warnings
|
|
under verbosity level.
|
|
o In G4VSolid::EstimateCubicVolume(..), initialise local variable to zero
|
|
to silence invalid false positive warnings reported in compilation of CMSSW.
|
|
o G4UAdapter: removed fake default constructor, clearing compilation warnings
|
|
on gcc-14.
|
|
+ solids/CSG:
|
|
o Hide all ENorm/ESide enums in anonymous namespaces to prevent ODR warnings.
|
|
Identified in ATLAS Athena code built against v11.3.0.
|
|
o Removed fake default constructor from G4U* wrappers, clearing compilation
|
|
warnings on gcc-14.
|
|
+ solids/specific:
|
|
o G4Polyhedra, G4UPolyhedra: fix to verify the validity of the delta phi to
|
|
restore proper visualization.
|
|
o Removed fake default constructor from G4U* wrappers, clearing compilation
|
|
warnings on gcc-14.
|
|
|
|
o Global
|
|
------
|
|
+ Corrected logic error in G4PhysicsTable when reading data in binary
|
|
mode on Windows platforms.
|
|
+ In G4ThreadLocalSingleton, removed unprotected left-over debug inclusion
|
|
of G4BackTrace header. Addressing problem report #2649.
|
|
+ Updated date and version for 11.3.1.
|
|
|
|
o Materials
|
|
---------
|
|
+ Made ios flags for Store/Retrieve of G4ExtDEDXTable consistent to avoid
|
|
issues on Windows platforms.
|
|
|
|
o Physics Lists
|
|
-------------
|
|
+ constructors/limiters:
|
|
o G4GenericBiasingPhysics: fixed exception in adding call to
|
|
AddBiasingProcessLimiter() when parallel world is not defined.
|
|
Ignore calls to *AddPDGRange() functions if 'PDGlow' greater
|
|
than 'PDGhigh'.
|
|
|
|
o Processes - Cuts
|
|
----------------
|
|
+ In G4ProductionCutsTable::UpdateCoupleTable(), make sure that the
|
|
couple tables are updated if 'userEnergyCuts' vectors are set.
|
|
|
|
o Processes - Electromagnetic
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
+ dna
|
|
o Removed obsolete/commented references to G4AllocatorList.
|
|
+ lowenergy:
|
|
o Fixed reported Coverity defects in Penenelope models, G4ShellData,
|
|
G4FluoData and G4AugerTransition.
|
|
+ standard:
|
|
o G4OrePowellAtRestModel: added missing decay plane rotation.
|
|
|
|
o Processes - Hadronic
|
|
--------------------
|
|
+ de_excitation:
|
|
o G4ExcitationHandler, G4GammaTransition, G4PhotonEvaporation: removed
|
|
production of unphysical states. Addressing problem report #2584.
|
|
Changes in hadronic shower shapes for QGSP_BIC and QGSP_INCLXX physics
|
|
lists are observed, with wider lateral shower shapes and increase in
|
|
energy response.
|
|
+ models/radioactive_decay:
|
|
o Fix in G4RadioactiveDecay to enable biasing in radioactive decay.
|
|
Addressing problem report #2592.
|
|
+ util
|
|
o G4Fragment: added protection against precision loss in computation of
|
|
a boost vector at rest.
|
|
o G4HadronicDeveloperParameters: added limitation of warning printout on
|
|
change of parameters.
|
|
|
|
o processes/scoring
|
|
-----------------
|
|
+ Fixes to G4EnergySplitter to ensure that each call to
|
|
SplitEnergyInVolumes() utilises the correct phantom parameterisation,
|
|
according to [GitHub PR#80](https://github.com/Geant4/geant4/pull/80)
|
|
Addressing problem report #2636.
|
|
|
|
o Run
|
|

|
|
G4GeometryManager in undertaking parallel voxelisation.
|
|
|
|
o Examples
|
|
--------
|
|

|
|
o Ensure non-negative beam energy.
|
|
+ extended/biasing/GB01
|
|

|
|
o Set default splitting probability to 0.2.
|
|
o Instantiate G4GenericBiasingPhysics only if biasing is enabled.

|
|
when biasing is off.
|
|
o Propagate biasing on/off to parallel world construction to
|
|
