// Class description:
// Low Energy electromagnetic process, electron energy loss
// Further documentation available from http://www.ge.infn.it/geant4/lowE
// -------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// This class is the implementation of the unified Energy Loss process.
// It calculates the continuous energy loss for e+/e-.
// The following processes give contributions to the continuous
// energy loss (by default) :
// --- ionisation (= cont.ion.loss + delta ray production)
// --- bremsstrahlung (= cont.loss due to soft brems+discrete bremsstrahlung)
// more can be added ..........
// This class creates static dE/dx and range tables for e+ and e-,
// which tables can be used by other processes , too.
// G4eLowEnergyLoss is the base class for the processes giving contribution
// to the (continuous) energy loss of e+/e- .
//
// History: first implementation, based on object model of
// 2nd December 1995, G.Cosmo
