// Class Description:
//
// A utility static class, responsable for keeping common parameters
// for all transportation processes. These parameters can be relevant only
// to some types of particles, e.g. only stable charged particles.
//
// Constraints (creation/update):
// - It must initialized only by the master thread.
// - It should be updated before the transportation processes have been instantiated.
// Note: It can be updated only if the state of the simulation is PreInit, Init or Idle.
//
// Only those instances of G4Transportation (and derived classes) that are created
// *after* G4TransportationParameters will be aware of it and will copy
// the values of its parameters.
// (So in a multithreaded application, runs that start after this is created will obtain them.)
//
// Use: Parameters may be used in run time or at initialisation
//
// Meaning of parameters:
// - Warning energy: below this, looping tracks can be killed without any message
// - Important energy: between warning E and this, looping tracks will complain and die
// - Number of Trials: above 'important energy' looping tracks get this number of chances.
// Author: J. Apostolakis Nov 2022
// Inspired by G4EmParameters by V. Ivanchenko
