run manager.
o Make PTL cmake options available in configuration, including:
PTL_USE_SANITIZER and PTL_USE_LOCKS, but hidden from clients building
Geant4; relevant Geant4 options forwarded to PTL: TBB, sanitizer, locks.
o Use CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD in place of GEANT4_BUILD_CXXSTD in CMake
configuration. Also, updated minimum CMake version requirements.
o Geometry:
--------
+ management:
o Added map for faster search based on name in G4SolidStore,
G4RegionStore, G4logicalVolumeStore and G4PhysicalVolumeStore.
Pointers to elements are stored in the map as buckets, grouping
elements with same name.
o G4UAdapter: added operator<<() to fix clash between similar methods
for G4VSolid and VecGeom UnplacedVolume.
+ navigation:
o G4Navigator: enabled use of alternative G4VoxelNavigation class.
Adds call to virtual method in ComputeStep(), LocateGlobalPointAndSetup()
for voxelised volumes. Controlled by ALTERNATIVE_VOXEL_NAV flag, turned
on by default.
Deleted experimental obsolete method RecheckDistanceToCurrentBoundary(),
also removed in G4SafetyHelper and G4PathFinder.
Cleaned up ComputeSafety().

+ solids/Boolean:
o In G4UnionSolid and G4SubtractionSolid, revised GetCubicVolume() method
to use cubic volume of constituent volume(s) and an intersection solid,
for more accurate measurement.
+ solids/CSG:
o G4Trap, G4Para and wrappers: added accessors to retrieve/calculate
original values for alpha, theta, phi.
+ solids/specific:
o Simplified implementation of CreatePolyhedron() in G4Polyhedra,
G4Polycone, G4GenericPolycone and related wrappers.

maps on user request and removed problematic Reset() function.
o Global:
------
+ Removed deprecated classes: G4LPhysicsFreeVector, G4PhysicsLnVector
and G4PhysicsOrderedFreeVector.
+ G4PhysicsFreeVector, G4PhysicsLogVector, G4PhysicsLinearFreeVector:
in each constructor added extra Boolean parameter for enabling Spline;
needed for later removal of the SetSpline() method, required for
re-organisation of the code using templates.
+ G4PhysicsFreeVector: added to all constructors control on continuous
increase energy in the energy vector. Added accessor to allow user query
for use or not of Spline interpolation.
+ G4PhysicsVector: extended warning printout.
+ G4ConvergenceTester: fixed potential thread contention likely
responsible for crashes in ThreadSafe-Scorers example, observed in
system testing. Some code cleanup.

(Bohr_magneton and nuclear_magneton), based on CLHEP-2.4.4.2.
+ G4UnitsTable: added unit definitions for Velocity and Momentum.
+ New G4Filesystem header to support transparent use of C++ filesystem
whether it is in std:: or std::experimental namespaces.
+ G4ThreadLocalSingleton: added way to explicitly call Clear() for all
TLS singletons.
+ Reworked G4Backtrace to use fewer dynamic memory allocations when
printing backtrace in order to avoid overflowing the signal stack.
+ Modernised CMake script.
+ Changed date for release 11.0-beta.
o Graphics Representations:
------------------------
+ Reviewed HepPolyhedronPgon, HepPolyhedronPcon classes given by rz-contour.
+ HepPolyhedron: added TriangulatePolygon() and RotateContourAroundZ().
Fixed calculation of number of faces in a polyhedron object in method
RotateContourAroundZ(). In some cases, 'Nfaces' was computed incorrectly,
resulting in more memory being allocated than required; this did not
create problems for rendering, but used to generate warning messages
in some cases.
+ Removed deprecated G4VisAttributes::Invisible.
+ Added G4Colour::operator<(), useful for making a set or map based on
G4colour as a key.
+ G4VGraphicsScene: introduced new pure virtual function
AddCompound(const G4Mesh&).
+ G4VisAttributes: improved message in SetForceNumberOfCloudPoints().
+ Modernised CMake script.

Avoids inadvertent "highlighting" in G4UIQt on worker threads.
+ Fixed leak in G4ProfilerMessenger.
+ Modernised CMake script.
o Interfaces
----------
+ Modified G4UIExecutive::SelectSessionByFile() to ensure that in Windows
the Win32 OpenGL driver is selected as the second choice by default.
Based on GitHub PR#20.
+ Extended G4UIWin32 driver with new features, based on contribution
proposed in GitHub PR#23.
+ G4UIQt: deal properly with creation and deletion of viewer properties.
+ Removed obsolete Wt code from source and use in G4UIexecutive.

flag.
+ G4NistMaterialBuilder: removed unused argument "isotopes" from all
methods where NIST materials are built.
+ G4NistManager: adopt modifications in method signatures of
G4NistMaterialBuilder but keep own method signatures unchanged.

merged .icc into .cc; removed deprecated methods; applied clang-format.
+ G4OpticalMaterialProperties: added missing include.
+ G4MaterialPropertyVector: use G4PhysicsFreeVector instead of
obsolete G4PhysicsOrderedFreeVector.
+ New class G4OpticalMaterialProperties, a store for optical material
properties.
+ G4MaterialPropertiesTable: new AddProperty() method to allow use of
predefined optical material properties.
+ G4IonStoppingData, G4ICRU90StoppingData, G4ExtDEDXTable,

and G4HadronFissionProcess with G4NeutronFissionProcess in builders.
o Replaced particle-specific hadronic inelastic processes (that have
been deleted) with G4HadronInelasticProcess.

(that have been deleted) with better ones.
o G4BinaryDeuteronBuilder, G4BinaryTritonBuilder, G4BinaryHe3Builder,
G4BinaryAlphaBuilder: removed unused header files.

use uniform approach for verbosity via G4EmParameters; instantiate
NIEL process only if parameter MaxNIELEnergy is above zero; include
gamma linear polarization model to Opt0, Opt3, Opt4, SS, and
Livermore physics constructors if the parameter EnablePolarisation
is "true"; G4EmLivermorePolarizedPhysics fully inheriting from
G4EmLivermorePhysics.
- G4GammaGeneralProcess: updated interface in the Retrieve() method.
- G4EmDNAPhysics: updated configuration of standard physics for gamma
and positrons according to Opt3; updated particle list by addition
of G4Alpha; simplified ConstructProcess() method using
G4PhysicsListHelper.
- Updated G4EmLowEPPhysics physics model configuration
See https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.02721 for details.
- G4GammaGeneralProcess: exclude gamma-nuclear from the 2nd energy area,
because cross-section is zero; in the 4th energy interval include in
the vector value of 1 - p instead of p, where p is the cumulative
probability of a sub-process.
- G4EmDNAChemistry, _option1, _option2, _option3
added dissociation channel for electron-hole recombination.
- G4EmDNAChemistry_option3: changed pre-chemical model.
- DNA PhysicsLists: use SeEmModel() with correct signature.

- G4EmLivermorePolarizedPhysics: removed unused header,
- G4EmLivermorePhysics: use G4LivermorePolarizedComptonModel if
polarisation is enabled.
- Removed obsolete G4EmLEPTSPhysics, and code cleanup in G4EmDNAPhysics
and G4EmDNAPhysics_stationary.
- G4EmLivermorePhysics, G4EmPenelopePhysics_option1,
G4EmStandardPhysics_option3, G4EmStandardPhysics_option4,
G4EmLowEPhysics, G4EmStandardPhysicsSS: instantiate G4ePairProduction
process after ionisation and bremsstrahlung; does not change physics
but helps to have clearer debug printouts.

G4LENDBertiniGammaElectroNuclearBuilder: replaced
G4PhotoNuclearProcess (now deleted) with G4HadronInelasticProcess.
o hadron_elastic:
- G4HadronDElasticPhysics, G4HadronHElasticPhysics: use inheritance
from G4HadronElasticPhysics; use G4HadProcesses, G4PhysListUtil and
G4HadParticles; implement cross-section factor.

according to the hadron type, given that the universal Gheisha
elastic cross-section has been now deleted.
- In all constructors, use verbosity level from G4HadronicParameters.
o hadron_inelastic:
- In all constructors: printouts are controlled by verbosity level of
G4HadronicParameters class; 'verboseLevel' member in base class is
not used; G4HadronicParameters singleton is initialized in all class
constructors; if the verbosity level is defined in class constructor,
it is propagated to G4HadronicParameters (user may change this level
using UI command before physics is initialized); check versus nullptr
is added in several places.
- Removed unused header files, and replaced when needed
G4HadronCaptureProcess with G4NeutronCaptureProcess.
+ lists:

applied C++11 codewords to method declarations (virtual, override,
explicit); deleted unused variables and methods; started naming class
member variables with 'f'; use 'nullptr' instead of '0'; removed unused
headers; use constexpr for numbers. Use 'virtual' and 'override' methods
consistently; member variables start with f; shorten long names; removed
unused variables; make class variables local where appropriate; order
declarations of class variables; define class variables; removed unused
functions; marked copy/assignment operators as 'delete'; added
ProcessDescriptions; removed ChangeHistory from top of code;

o G4hBremsstrahlungModel: added header.
o G4hhIonisation: removed G4BohrFuluctuations.
+ Low Energy:
o G4LivermorePolarizedComptonModel: added quantum entanglement of e+
annihilation. If the photons have been "tagged" as "quantum-entangled",
for example by G4eplusAnnihilation for annihilation into 2 photons, they
are "analysed" if and only if both photons suffer Compton scattering.
Theoretical predictions from Pryce and Ward, Nature N.4065 (1947) p.435,
and Snyder et al, Physical Review 73 (1948) p.440. Experimental
validation in "Photon quantum entanglement in the MeV regime and its
application in PET imaging", D. Watts, J. Allison et al., Nature
Communications (2021)12:2646, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-22907-5.
Added data member 'fEntanglementModelIndex'.
The implementation of entanglement is described in extensive comments
in G4LivermorePolarizedComptonModel source.
o Migrate the Spline treatment for all physics vectors.
o General code cleanup: use G4 types; cleanup of headers and Penelope
models.
o Convert G4LPhysicsFreeVector into G4PhysicsFreeVector.

G4LivermorePolarizedPhotoElectricGDModel.
o G4MicroElecLOPhononModel: removed debug printout; rename member of
class.
o Improved management of array in G4PenelopeGammaConversionModel.

files.
o G4EnergyLossForExtrapolator, G4ErrorEnergyLoss, G4TablesForExtrapolator:
provide thread-safe initialisation of internal tables; guarantee
initialisation only once; size of tables depend only on number of
materials.
o G4MuIonisation: removed obsolete G4BohrFluctuations header.
o G4MuPairProduction, G4MuBremsstrahlung, G4MuBremsstrahlungModel:
improved initialisation.
o Updated PrintGeneratorInformation() method signature in G4ModifiedMephi.

o General code cleanup: name classes in logical manner; improved comments;
added ProcessDescription; ordered #includes and removed unused; disabled
copy and assignment operators with 'delete'; increased C++11 keyword
usage, especially override, explicit; renamed (most) class variables to

flag.
+ Standard:
o G4eplusAnnihilation: introducing Quantum Entanglement. This is activated
by UI command "/process/em/QuantumEntanglement". For e+e- -> gamma gamma,
the gammas are "tagged" here and must be "analysed" in a Compton
scattering process - see, for example, G4LivermorePolarizedComptonModel.
Otherwise entanglement has no effect even if activated. Added data
member "fEntanglementModelIndex". Instantiate clipboard only if Quantum
Entanglement is requested.
o G4PAIModelData, G4eplusTo2GammaOKVIModel: corrected initialisation of

G4LossTableManager: updated integral approach by introduction of a
cross-section shape type and different actions depending on the type;
added cache for cross-section and range; removed unused methods;
attempt to reduce number of "if" operators at run time; integral and

o Generic Processes:
-----------------
+ Cuts:
o G4PhysicsTableHelper: updated interface to Retrieve() method.
+ Management:

deprecated G4LPhysicsFreeVector by G4PhysicsFreeVector.
o G4UPiNuclearCrossSection: disabled Spline interpolation.
+ management
o G4HadronicProcess: made public the method GetHadronicInteraction().
This can be useful for users to access at run-time some information
available from a hadronic final-state model.
o G4HadronInelasticProcess: added a new method to return the particle
definition (useful in practice to distinguish between baryons and
antibaryons, or between hadrons and ions).

corresponding to the Gheisha inelastic cross-section (that has been
deleted).

headers.
+ models/fission
o G4LFission: removed unused headers.
+ models/im_r_matrix

deprecated G4PhysicsLnVector with G4PhysicsLogVector; no functional
changes.
+ models/inclxx
o Updated comment in G4INCLXXInterface header.
+ models/lepto_nuclear
o G4NeutrinoNucleusModel: calculation of fQEratioA(Z,A,Enu) depending of

class member.
o Bug fixed in G4NeutrinoNucleusModel, updated calls for QE ratio of
muon/electron (anti-)neutrino.
+ models/particle_hp
o G4ParticleHPElementData, G4ParticleHPBGGNucleonInelasticXS: removed
old and unused header files corresponding to Gheisha cross-sections
(that have been deleted). Code cleanup.
o G4ParticleHPManager: removed deprecated environmental variables.
o G4ParticleHPData, G4ParticleHPJENDLHEData: replaced use of deprecated

+ models/qmd
o G4QMDReaction: replaced G4IonsShenCrossSection (that has been deleted)
with G4ComponentGGNuclNuclXsc. Replaced GetIsoCrossSection() with
GetElementCrossSection().
+ models/radioactive_decay
o G4RadioactiveDecayBase, G4RadioactiveDecayBaseMessenger: introduced
a new parameter for analogue mode to kill very long radioactive decays
at rest of nuclides happening later than this threshold parameter.
Its default value (10^27 ns) corresponds to more than twice the age of
the universe. The value of the threshold can be changed via a new UI
command, e.g. to set it to 1000 years:
"/process/had/rdm/thresholdForVeryLongDecayTime 3.1536e+10 second" .
This kind of cut has been introduced in order to avoid to account
energy depositions happening after many billions of years in ordinary
materials used in calorimetry, in particular Tungsten and Lead - via
their natural unstable, but very long lived, isotopes, such as
W183, W180 and Pb204. Note that the cut is not on the average, mean
lifetime, but on the actual sampled global decay time.
o Use existing facility to find logical volume in store, rather than
looping through in G4RadioactiveDecayBase::Select/DeselectAVolume().
o G4RadioactiveDecayBaseMessenger, G4RadioactivationMessenger: removed
deprecated commands.
o Remove obsolete classes G4RadioactiveDecay and
G4RadioactiveDecaymessenger.
o Updated build scripts and header includes.
+ models/theo_high_energy

methods already existing. This can be useful for users to access
at run-time some information available from a hadronic final-state
model.
+ processes
o Added G4HadronInelasticProcess class from hadronic/management module.
o Renamed G4HadronCaptureProcess as G4NeutronCaptureProcess, as it is
applied only for neutron projectile.
o Removed use of deleted header file G4HadronicDeprecate.
o G4HadronCaptureProcess: removed old and unused header file
corresponding to the Gheisha capture cross-section (that has been
deleted).
o G4HadronFissionProcess: replaced Gheisha fission cross-section

G4ElNeutrinoNucleusProcess, G4MuNeutrinoNucleusProcess: removed
old and unused header file corresponding to the Gheisha elastic
cross-section (that has been deleted).

o Run
---
+ Optimised access to volumes and regions stores.
+ Minor C++11 review in use of iterators, initialisers, etc...
+ Removed obsolete ResetCuts() method in G4VUserPhysicsList.
+ Added new G4DNAStaticMoleculeReactionProcess in PhysicsListHelper
for DNA processes.
+ Removed call to physicsList->TerminateWorker() in G4WorkerRunManager
as this appears to cause errors at termination.
+ G4VPhysicsConstructor: fixed initialisation of hadronic parameters
avoiding uncontrolled override of verbosityLevel.
+ General code cleanup and formatting.
o Tasking
-------
+ Updated to PTL v2.0.0 with shared_ptr usage. Included some minor API
changes to direct async usage.
+ Fixes to TBB task-group usage.
+ Fix for G4FORCENUMBEROFTHREADS flag lookup.
+ G4RunManagerFactory: set default run manager type to be Tasking.
+ G4TaskRunManager: check for valid threadPool pointer in method
RequestWorkersProcessCommandsStack() to fix occasional segmentation
fault at exit.
o Track & Tracking
----------------
+ Correction to G4Track::operator=() to copy also touchable-handles.
This fixes a crash originated when running importance sampling in the
G4EventManager when the track got assigned the origin touchable handler
from its own touchable handle; the touchable handler was sometimes not
set.
+ Adjusted printout format in DumpInfo() for G4VParticleChange
and G4ParticleChange.
+ Introducing G4SteppingVerboseWithUnits, an alternative to
G4SteppingVerbose with printout of proper units and extended features.
Added explicit virtual keyword for virtual methods and destructor in
G4SteppingVerbose.
+ Export protected static symbols in G4VSteppingVerbose for DLL builds
on Windows.
+ G4SteppingVerbose, G4SteppingManager: added a switch to instantiate
G4SteppingVerboseWithUnits.
+ Simplified way of defining a user-specific stepping verbose, that
is now common to all sequential, MT and tasking modes.
+ Avoid unnecessary indirections when checking for regional stepping
action by reusing the value of current volume in stepping manager.
+ Use existing facility to find logical volume in store, rather than
looping through in G4AdjointCrossSurfChecker.
o Visualization:
-------------
+ Removed unused XXX module.
+ management:
o Introducing "Special Mesh Rendering", with new commands:
/vis/viewer/set/specialMeshRendering
/vis/viewer/set/specialMeshVolumes
Only available with OpenGL drivers at present.
o Implemented a default AddCompound(const G4Mesh&) method: just draws the
"container" volume and prints a G4Exception with guidance.
o Added new data members to view parameters.
o Exploit C++17 to parse saved files in /vis/viewer/interpolate,
to use <filesystem>.
o Introducing /vis/scene/add/localAxes and /vis/touchable/localAxes
commands.
o Removed deprecated G4VisManager::SetUserAction().
Use RegisterRunDurationUserVisAction or similar instead.
These functions represent quite an advanced use of visualisation
and are rarely used.
o "/vis/set/extentForField", "/vis/scene/add/electricField" and
magneticField: improved guidance to take note of change to
G4VFieldModel, namely that the number of data points is now calculated
on the basis of the extent, which can be set as above.
o Interrupt macro (vis.mac) if graphics system invalid/unavailable.
Issues "Batch is interrupted" and avoids long litany of further errors.
o /vis/scene/add/volume (and /vis/drawVolume): exploit
G4PhysicalVolumesSearchScene to streamline geometry tree searches.
Avoid calculating extent of a temporary physical volume when not
necessary.
The above does introduce a change of behaviour for the case that a user
names the volume(s) requested, e.g., "/vis/drawVolume Shape1". The user
will not normally see any difference - but it does avoid extravagant
computation in some circumstances.
o G4VisCommandsSet, G4VisCommandsTouchable and G4VisCommandsViewer:
added comment of explanation where using G4PhysicalVolumesSearchScene.
o Use existing facility to find logical volume in store, rather than
looping through in G4VisCommandSceneAddLogicalVolume::SetNewValue().
o G4VisManager: fixed cout destination for UI manager during deletion.
o G4VisExecutive: removed deprecated Wt driver.
+ modeling:
o Introducing G4Mesh, a light class that encapsulates and validates a
nested parameterisation, called a "mesh". If a valid mesh cannot be
created out of a G4VPhysicalVolume, it will have a type "invalid".
The overhead of an invalid attempt is expected to be small, all the
same it should only be invoked if the user specifies mesh rendering.
o G4ModelingParameters: added new data members and access functions.
o G4PhysicalVolumeModel: added code for special mesh rendering, under
control of user flag. If flag is set by the above commands, and if a
volume is a "mesh" (a container for a nested parameterisation), invoke
new method AddCompound(const G4Mesh&).
o G4PhysicalVolumeModel: moved fFullPVPath.push_back earlier, addressing
a bug in visualisation of touchables.
o Improved G4VModel; make SetTransform() virtual.
o G4ArrowModel, G4AxesModel and G4TextModel: implement SetTransform().
o Take care to apply to original model. For example, if SetTransform() is
called more than once it must apply to the original.
o G4PhysicalVolumeModel: for the resultant of clipping, set the
visualisation attributes of the original.
o G4VFieldModel: Change concept of choice of data points: this model
simply checked that a data point was within the extent.
Now it uses the extent to determine the datapoint spacing.
Note: if 'fExtentForField' is null, the used extent is that of the
current scene; otherwise it uses that supplied by the user.
o G4PhysicalVolumesSearchScene: allow user to limit the depth of descent
during a geometry tree search.
o G4PhysicalVolumeModel: if opacity (alpha) == 0 (completely transparent),
treat same as pVisAttribs->IsVisible().
G4PhysicalVolumeModel: simplified validation.
o Added G4Exception in default implementation of
G4PseudoScene::ProcessVolume().
+ externals/gl2ps:
o allow use of non-APPLE OpenGL on APPLE.
To use this, build with macro GL2PS_USE_GL_GL_H.
+ OpenGL:
o Implemented WindowProc() function in G4OpenGLWin32Viewer for the Win32
OpenGL driver (function that was commented out). It is now possible to
change the Zoom and the orientation using the mouse (like in the Qt
driver). Based on contribution in GitHub PR#20.
o Implemented AddCompound(const G4Mesh&) method: turns nested
parameterisations into polymarkers of dots - much improved speed.
o Enable extended WIN32 window in G4OpenGLWin32Viewer.
Based on contribution in GitHub PR#23.
o G4OpenGLQtViewer::addNonPVSceneTreeElement(): special case for markers,
use Info() if non-empty name appearing in Qt's scene tree. This allows
the user to design markers, e.g., a list of points, and give them a name
that relates to the providence of the points, e.g., a particular
material or geometry component.
o Removed deprecated Wt driver.
o G4OpenGLStoredQtViewer: moved fViewId<0 check to top of constructor to
pick up errors in base class construction.
o Removed deprecated "/vis/ogl/set/" commands.
o All commands connected with a time window. Use equivalent
"/vis/viewer/set/timeWindow" commands.
o "/vis/ogl/set/eventsDrawInterval <N>" is replaced by
"/vis/ogl/flushAt NthPrimitive <N>".
o G4OpenGLWin32Viewer: fixed occasional crash with G4UIWin32 when
creating viewer from UI command: avoid indirect call to DrawView()
while still within CreateMainWindow().
o Comment out makeCurrent() in G4OpenGLImmediate/StoredQtViewer
to prevent red-button crash.
+ OpenInventor:
o G4OpenInventorQtExaminerViewer: for tabbed viewer in UIQt, added a
Detach button to move the viewer to its own dedicated and resizable
window on the desktop. Added event handler for mouse wheel to fix the
non-intuitive behavior. Mouse-wheel-forward now zooms/dollys in.
Added viewer button to enable the "axis cross" (3d axes) feedback
mechanism.
o G4OpenInventorViewer: upgraded the group node sensor to process camera
movements, thus eliminating the need for the camera sensor. The node
sensor receives all camera notifications and is immune to changes in
the camera type.
o Force kernel visit if special mesh rendering parameters change.
o Code cleanup of OpenInventorQt classes.
+ Qt3D
o Improve overall protection of debug output with #ifdef G4QT3DDEBUG.
Moved debug code to G4Qt3DUtils header.
o Force kernel visit if special mesh rendering parameters change.
o Include some trial code (commented out) for text output.
+ ToolsGS:
o Introducing ToolsSG (TSG) drivers based on externals/g4tools.
o Providing four new (mutually exclusive) vis drivers: TOOLSSG_X11_GLES,
TOOLSSG_WINDOWS_GLES, TOOLSSG_XT_GLES and TOOLSSG_QT_GLE.
