|
|
|

|
|
o No longer create symlinks on Windows; Windows permissions may prevent
|
|
creation of symlinks, leading to errors at install time.

|
|
setter/getter functions.
|
|
+ In G4ScoreQuantityMessenger, changed SetDefaultUnit() in trackLength
|
|

|
|
symbols from Windows Kits code.
|
|
|
|

|
|
'masterG4coutDestination' as normal pointer.
|
|
Addressing problem report #2217.
|
|
+ Added windefs.hh header, including protections for double definition
|
|
of global symbols from Windows Kits code.

|
|
o Physics Lists
|
|
-------------
|
|

|
|
scattering on top of any other physics configuration.
|
|
Addressing problem report #2106.
|
|
+ constructors/gamma_lepto_nuclear
|
|
o Fixed reports from Coverity; removed double delete in destructor of
|
|
G4LENDBertiniGammaElectroNuclearBuilder.
|
|
+ lists:
|
|
o LBE: updated cross-sections to avoid crashes caused by the removal of
|
|
default Gheisha cross-sections, and to have consistency between elastic
|
|
and inelastic cross-sections.
|
|
|
|
o Processes - Electromagnetic:
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
+ muons:
|
|
o G4MuPairProductionModel: added Store/Retrieve data methods.
|
|
Co-works with new data-set G4EMLOW-7.9.1.
|
|
+ standard:
|
|
o G4BetheHeitler5DModel: added protection against negative argument of
|
|
sqrt(), due to precision lost.
|
|
+ utils:
|
|
o G4EmParameters, G4EmParametersMessenger: added new parameter to enable
|
|
read of e+e- production table from file.
|
|
Co-works with new data-set G4EMLOW-7.9.1.
|
|
|
|
o Processes - Hadronic:
|
|
--------------------
|
|
+ cross_sections:
|
|
o G4HadronInelasticDataSet: fixed wrong GHEISHA x-section.
|
|
Addressing problem report #2220.
|
|
+ management:
|
|
o G4HadronicProcess: for charge check assume that all final electrons
|
|
come from internal conversion.
|
|
+ cascade:
|
|
o G4CascadeCheckBalance: fixed outstanding problem of the interface with
|
|
native pre-compound model, happening when in the default de-excitation
|
|
internal electron conversion gets enabled.
|
|
o G4CascadeInterface: fixed memory leak by deleting ltcollider in class
|
|
destructor.
|
|
o G4CascadeParamMessenger.cc: ensure that Bertini-specific commands get
|
|
added to "/process/had/cascade/" UI directory, instead of
|
|
"/process/had".
|
|
+ models/coherent_elastic:
|
|
o G4ElasticHadrNucleusHE: for pi- and Z>1 reuse data structure computed
|
|
for pi+ in order to reduce memory and CPU at initialisation; added new
|
|
private methods to store/retrieve data tables. Co-works with new
|
|
data-set G4EMLOW-7.9.1. Fixed Coverity report.
|
|
Switch to parameterized model by cut on kinetic energy and not momentum.

|
|
+ models/parton_string/qgsm:
|
|
o G4FTFParameters: fixed division by zero (Coverity report) due to wrong
|
|
protection.
|
|
+ models/radioactive_decay:
|
|
o In G4Radioactivation::AddDeexcitationSpectrumForBiasMode(), fixed
|
|
memory leak. Addressing problem report #2164.
|
|
o G4RadioactiveDecay, G4RadioactiveDecayBase: changed default verbosity
|
|
from 0 to 1, and remove G4cerr wherever it occurs and replace it with
|
|
G4Exception or G4cout.
|
|
Increased verbosity thresholds in order to reduce printout size.
|
|
o G4BetaPlusDecay: changed sign of daughterZ argument in
|
|
G4BetaDecayCorrections according to problem report #2199.
|
|
o Fixed Coverity warnings in G4RadioactiveDecay and
|
|
G4RadioactiveDecayBase. Fixed uninitialized data in G4SFDecay.
|
|
+ processes:
|
|
o G4HadronElasticProcess: removed forgotten try/catch pattern for
|
|
target isotope selection.
|
|
+ stopping:
|
|
o G4MuonicAtomDecay: fixed Coverity warning by addition of G4Exception.
|
|
|
|
o Visualization:
|
|
-------------
|
|
+ OpenInventor:
|
|
o Added include paths to Inventor to usage requirements on G4OpenInventor.
|
|
Inventor does not yet support imported targets, and paths added by
|
|
include_directories are now explicitly removed.
|
|
Addressing problem report #2215
|
|
|
|
o Data sets:
|
|
---------
|
|
+ G4EMLOW-7.9.1:
|
|
o Added a new directory mupair for double differential probability
|
|
of e+e- pairs produced by muons or hadrons.
|
|
|
|
o Examples:
|
|
--------
|
|
+ basic
|
|
o Fixed comment for suggested command "/run/numberOfThreads" in macros.

|
|
o HistoManager: fixed FPE happening if check on volume's material
