Geant4 10.6 - patch-03 Release Notes
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
6 November 2020
|
|
|
|
List of fixes included in this public patch since the public release 10.6.p02:
|
|
|
|
o Analysis:
|
|
--------
|
|
+ Fixed definition of UI commands in G4AnalysisMessenger (for 2D and
|
|
3D histograms).
|
|
+ Updated to g4tools 5.0.6:
|
|
o Changed usage of Google style fonts.
|
|
o Fixed compilation warnings on clang-10.
|
|
|
|
o Event:
|
|
-----
|
|
+ Fixed misleading error message in G4SPSPosDistribution.
|
|
Addressing problem report #2275.
|
|
|
|
o Global:
|
|
------
|
|
+ Re-instate static pointer for 'masterG4coutDestination' in
|
|
G4coutDestination with proper symbol exporting on Windows
|
|
(necessary for MT builds). Restores trapping of G4cout from
|
|
workers in Qt GUI.
|
|
+ Updated date and version for 10.6.p03.
|
|
|
|
o Intercoms:
|
|
---------
|
|
+ Added StoL() method in G4UImessenger for parsing string to long int.
|
|
Addressing problem report #2276.
|
|
|
|
o Interfaces:
|
|
----------
|
|
+ Added fix in G4Qt to properly set GL on Windows (see Forum topic #3144).
|
|
|
|
o Persistency - gdml:
|
|
------------------
|
|
+ Fixed treatment of loops. Addressing problem report #2273.
|
|
|
|
o Processes - Hadronic:
|
|
--------------------
|
|
+ cross_sections:
|
|
o G4CrossSectionElastic, G4CrossSectionInelastic: fix for ions and
|
|
anti-ions, where the max energy of applicability of the (elastic and
|
|
inelastic) cross-sections must scale with the absolute baryonic number;
|
|
however, the cross-sections objects are often shared between the
|
|
different types of ions (d, t, He3, alpha, and genericIon), therefore
|
|
we scale by a large value (256, safely larger than the number of
|
|
nucleons of the heaviest nuclides).
|
|
+ models/de_excitation:
|
|
o G4NuclearLevelData: more safe initialisation of data in MT mode, use
|
|
mutex locks only within each method, whithout calls to other methods.
|
|
o G4ExcitationHandler: call to G4NuclearLevelData to initialise data for
|
|
levels for all elements possibly involved in the geometry.
|
|
o G4FermiFragmentsPoolVI: use old interface to nuclear levels.
|
|
+ models/particle_hp:
|
|
o G4ParticleHPInelastic, G4ParticleHPInelasticData: improved error
|
|
message in the case that both G4PARTICLEHPDATA and the related
|
|
particle-specific environmental variable (e.g. G4PROTONHPDATA) are
|
|
not defined. The recommendation is to define only G4PARTICLEHPDATA.
|
|
+ models/parton_string/diffraction:
|
|
o G4FTFModel: quasi-elastic is not applied any longer when the target
|
|
nucleus has one nucleon and the projectile hadron is not an ion. This
|
|
avoids to double count elastic scattering (as reported by NA61/SHINE
|
|
in 158 GeV/c proton interactions on liquid hydrogen).
|
|
Addressing problem report #2274.
|
|
+ models/parton_string/hadronization:
|
|
o G4VLongitudinalStringDecay: fix in ProduceOneHadron() method, to remove
|
|
an inconsistency in the treatment of low-mass strings with respect to
|
|
the method G4QGSMFragmentation::FragmentString(). As consequence of
|
|
this inconsistency, interactions with fewer intra-nuclear collisions
|
|
were favored, therefore producing fewer secondary hadrons.
|
|
o G4QGSMFragmentation : proper exit in the method FragmentString()
|
|
when the string mass is below the threshold.
|
|
+ models/parton_string/qgsm:
|
|
o G4BaryonSplitter: removed inexisting in Geant4 excited hyperon states
|
|
(Sigma* and Xi*).
|
|
|
|
o Run:
|
|
---
|
|
+ Fix for rndmSaveThisEvent() not properly working in multi-threaded mode.
|
|
Addressing problem report #2278.
|
|
+ Allow setting of seeds with 'long' values for '/random/setSeeds'
|
|
UI command. Addresses problem report #2276.
|
|
|
|
o Visualization:
|
|
-------------
|
|
+ Fixed compilation warnings on clang-10 in gMocren and gl2ps.
|
|
|
|
o Examples:
|
|
--------
|
|
+ advanced/brachytherapy
|
|
o Added missing call to "/run/initialize" in VisualisationMacro.mac.
|
|
+ advanced/purging_magnet
|
|
+ advanced/STCyclotron
|
|
o Fixed README.
