// Class description:
//
// A physics vector which has values of energy-loss, cross-section,
// and other physics values of a particle in matter in a given
// range of the energy, momentum, etc. The scale of energy/momentum
// bins is natural logarithmic.
//
// History:
// 27 Apr. 1999, M.G. Pia: Created, copying from G4PhysicsLogVector
// 11 Nov. 2000, H.Kurashige : Use STL vector for dataVector and binVector
