|
|
state. Partially addressing problem report #1832.

|
|
of high energy.
|
|
o Removed specific GEMCoulombBarrier classes per ion.
|
|
o G4PhotonEvaporation: rationalised initialisation in case radioactive
|
|
decay initialisation is incomplete, no effect on hadron inelastic
|
|
interactions.
|
|
o G4DeexPrecoParameters, G4NuclearLevelData, G4ExcitationHandler,
|
|
G4PhotonEvaporation: fixed initialisation in MT mode if physics-list
|
|
has only radioactive decay.
|

G4HadronicInteractionRegistry, G4HadronicInteraction:
|
|
added c++11 keywords, minor cleanup.
|
|
+ models/particle_hp
|
|
o Changed default option of GNUmake script; G4PHPDEBUG flag was
|
|
unintentionally activated.
|
|
+ models/parton_string
|
|
o Major revision of QGS model; implemented Reggeon cascading and
|
|
associated "Fermi motion". Implemented new algorithm of parton
|
|
kinematical properties determination and calculation of residual
|
|
nucleus properties. Adjusted G4GammaParticipants to the revised
|
|
model.
|
|
o Improved energy-momentum conservation in the QGS model, especially
|

|
|
P_minus = 0.
|
|
o New tuning of FTF model parameters.

|
o Introduced various <Pt^2> for diffractive and non-diffractive
|
|
interactions in G4FTFModel, for NA49 and NA61/SHINE experimental data.
|
|
o Fine tuning in G4DiffractiveExcitation for the FTF model, to describe
|
|
NA49 experimental data, especially, <Pt> on Xf.
|
|
o Fix to address the baryon puzzle of NA49 data; <Pt> of baryons 1/2 at a
|
|
string fragmentation setting up at 435 MeV/c, and <Pt> for barion 3/2
|
|
production st 900 MeV/c.
|
|
o Fine tuning of G4LundStringFragmentation. <Pt> of mesons created at
|
|
quark fragmentation is decreased. <Pt> of baryons created at quark and

|
|
and B(3/2). <Pt^2> is increased in 2 times.
|
|
Important for a description of NA49 experimental data on pp-interactions
|
|
at 158 GeV/c, especially for xF and Pt distributions.
|
|
o Introduced smearing of delta-isobar mass; delta-isobars are now treated
|
|
as a kinetic track; improved parameterisation of the quark exchange
|
|
process with excitation.
|
|
NA61/SHINE exp. data on Pi+, Pi-, K+, K- and protons in PP interactions
|
|
at 20, 31, 40, 80 and 158 GeV/c are now described. Now reproducing the
|
|
ratio of <Strane Q>/<Normal Q> in PP interactions. Not describing kink
|
|
in AA interactions.
|
|
o Improved di-quark fragmentation into baryons in Lund string
|
|
fragmentation. Improved description of NA49 and NA61/SHINE exp. data
|
|

for Pbar P annihilation.
|
|
o Moved G4PomeronCrossSection class to 'qgsm' module.
|
|
+ models/pre_equilibrium
|
|

|
|
de-excitation; this allows to perform pre-equilibrium emission for
|
|
light nuclei.
|
|
o Migrated classes to use G4DeexPrecoParameters; removed obsolete class
|
|
G4PreCompoundParameters.
|
|
o G4GNASHTransitions: fixed problem in computation of probability.
|
|

|
|
+ models/radioactive_decay
|

|
In DoDecay(): added protection for zero pointer in case of missing
|
|
decay channel. Added new method AddDeexcitationSpectrumForBiasMode().
|
|
In BuildPhysicsTable(), removed initialization of atomic de-excitation
|
|
to avoid overwriting its initialization in EM.
|
|
Throw fatal exception if initialization not done somewhere.
|
|
Initialisation should be now done in physics-lists.
|
|
o Added production of gamma and electron spectra from de-excitation of
|
|
excited levels in the biased mode.
|
|
o Removed obsolete class G4RIsotopeTable.
|

|
|
|
|
o Run
|
|
---
|
|
+ Added handling of multiple actions to be instantiated and handled by
|
|
user code. Added G4MultiRunAction class to allow for multiple run actions
|
|
in a single job; added G4MultiPrimaryAction to allow for multiple
|
|
user-primary generation actions in a single job.
|
|
+ Renamed all MT related exceptions to have new code matching pattern.
|
|
+ Use scoped enum for G4MTRunManager::WorkerActionRequest and
|
|
added PROCESSUI action.
|
|
+ Added G4MTRunManager::GetNumberActiveThreads() method.
|
|
+ Use new class G4MTBarrier to implement synchronization points.
|
|
+ Introduced skeleton for new functionality to force workers to
|
|
execute UI commands w/o beamOn.
|
|
Introduced new UI command: "/run/workersProcessCmds" to trigger
|
|
execution of UI commands by workers even without a "/run/beamOn";
|
|
C++ API is G4MTRunManager::RequestWorkersProcessCommandsStack().
|
|
+ When workers are terminated they execute the UI commands issued
|
|
after the last /run/beamOn
|
|
+ Fixed potential memory leak in G4RunMessenger.
|
|
+ Disabled multi-scattering during post-step in G4PhysicsListHelper.
|
|
Fixed default process ordering parameters for G4UnknownDecay that
|
|
should not have AtRest.

|
|
infinite loop during an adjoint simulation.
|
|
+ G4AdjointPrimaryGenerationAction: removed 3 times splitting of primary
|
|
adjoint gamma.
|
|
|
|
o Track & Tracking
|
|
----------------
|
|
+ Change G4VUserTrackInformation pointer in G4Track to mutable and setters
|
|
to be const-methods. This allows the user to set his/her
|
|
G4VUserTrackInformation pointer without casting G4Track const pointer.
|
|
+ New G4Multi{Stepping,Tracking}Action classes to allow for multiple
|
|
user-actions in the same job.
|
|
|
|
o Visualization:
|
|
-------------
|
|
+ management:
|
|
o MT mode: moved flush to end of visualization thread; this is so that
|
|
all trajectories are flushed from the thread before switching back to
|
|
master thread. Also fixing picking in MT mode.
|
|
o Introduced UI command /vis/viewer/interpolate.
|
|
o Added some calls to SetView for security.
|
|
o Inhibited use of BeginRun, BeginEvent, EndEvent and EndRun
|
|
when vis is not enabled, for example after /vis/disable.
|
|
In particular this prevents the start of the vis thread in
|
|
multi-threading mode.
|
|
o G4VisExecutive: registered drawing and filtering by touched volume.
|
|
o G4VisCommandsSceneAdd: removed incorrect check on existing models in
|
|
command "/vis/scene/add/volume". It was preventing parallel worlds being
|
|
added individually.
|
|
o Fixed mistake in introductory vis manager message.
|
|
o Improved error tracking: introduced error code to track error
|
|
conditions in G4VVisCommand; tracked error conditions for '/vis/open'
|
|
and '/vis/drawTree' in G4VisCommandsCompound.
|
|
o Improved '/vis/viewer/save'.
|
|
o Use SetWorldVolume() for OriginVolume drawing and filtering.
|
|
o Code cleanup in G4VisCommandsSceneHandler.
|
|
+ modeling:
|
|
o Introduced drawing and filtering by touched volume.
|
|
i.e., "/vis/modeling/trajectories/create/drawByTouchedVolume"
|
|
"/vis/filtering/trajectories/create/touchedVolumeFilter"
|
|
and their associated commands.
|
|
This selects only by a single string, the physical volume name.
|
|
If there are more than one physical volumes with that name then any
|
|
trajectory touching any one of those volumes will be selected.
|
|
If the user sets more than one physical volume name (by using the set
|
|
command more than once) the trajectory will be selected if it touches
|
|
either of those volumes and which of the attributes (e.g., colour)
|
|
associated with those volumes is chosen is arbitrary.
|
|
A more comprehensive facility would allow the user to select by
|
|
touched touchable, i.e., by the full path and copy numbers of the
|
|
physical volume - but that is a job for the future if a use case arises.
|
|
o Added specific arguments to LocateGlobalPointAndSetup() to handle
|
|
multi-threading mode in G4TrajectoryDrawByOriginVolume::Draw() and
|
|
G4TrajectoryOriginVolumeFilter::Evaluate().
|
|
o G4TrajectoryModelFactories: added
|
|
G4TrajectoryDrawByTouchedVolumeFactory.
|
|
o G4TrajectoryFilterFactories: added
|
|
G4TrajectoryTouchedVolumeFilterFactory.

o G4ModelColourMap: sdded new access function GetBasicMap().
|
|

|
|
o Tidied uo G4TrajectoryDrawByOriginVolume.
|
|
o G4TrajectoryDrawByOriginVolume: tidied #include statements.
|
|
+ OpenGL:
|
|
o Xm: Ensure all items get flushed to screen, even when
|
|
'eventsDrawInterval' is set greater than 1.
|
|
o Fixed some inconsistencies in "/vis/ogl/set/eventsDrawInterval" and
|
|
"/vis/ogl/set/displayListLimit" commands.
|
|
o Fixed bug in picking output text.
|
|
o G4OpenGLXViewer: Added thread awareness regarding glXMakeCurrent.
|
|
o Fix for notifying multiple OGL X views.
|
|
o Fix in G4OpenGLViewer::getRealPrintFilename() so that files can
|
|
easily be referenced in alphanumeric order.
|
|
o CompareForKernelVisit(): tested for total visualization attributes
|
|
modifiers instead of just for size.
|
|
o Fixed typo for macro G4CONDITIONBROADCAST.
|
|
+ OpenInventor:
|
|
o G4OpenInventorXtExaminerViewer: designed new icons (XPM) for the
|
|
"Extended Pick Mode" and "Pick Reference Trajectory" buttons.
|
|
o Modified the mouse-over-trajectory output to make it more clear.
|
|
o Improved diagnostics for Bookmark file handling.
|
|
o New approach for determining distance along the reference path, using
|
|
element centers instead of bounding boxes. Solves problems with spurious
|
|
bounding box warnings and incorrect distance values.
|
|
o G4OpenInventorXtExtended & G4OpenInventorXtExtendedViewer: suppressed
|
|
some unwanted diagnostic output.
|
|
o Fixed setting of transparency type
|
|
(SoGLRenderAction::SORTED_OBJECT_ADD).
|
|
o Fixed dispatching.
|
|
o Fixed Coverity defects.
|
|
+ Tree:
|
|
o G4ASCIITreeSceneHandler: prevent multiple writing of the informational
|
|
header on the output file.
|
|
+ XXX:
|
|
o CompareForKernelVisit(): tested for total visualization attributes
|
|
modifiers instead of just for size.
