|
|
potential division by zero. If the polarization is perpendicular to
|
|
the scattering plane, it will not change after the scattering.
|
|
o Added call to ProposeLocalEnergyDeposit() for particle-change in
|
|
G4OpAbsorption.
|
|
+ Scoring:
|

|
|
TeV/nucleon. A residual is transformed in its rest frame. After
|
|
fragmentation, all produced fragments are transformed to Lab. system.
|

|
|
bug for a case when the actual mass of a residual nucleus is less than

|
|

will eventually diverge with different energy binning, in order to
|
|
extend kaon and hyperon final state tables to ~30 GeV.
|
|
o G4CascadeInterface: call static Initialize() function in constructor,
|
|
for sequential builds or master thread.
|
