| 2 | + Geant4 5.2 - patch-01 Release Notes |
| 3 | + ----------------------------------- |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | + 27 August 2003 |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +List of fixes included in this public patch to release 5.2: |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | + o Configuration scripts: |
| 10 | + --------------------- |
| 11 | + + WIN32-VC.gmk, WIN32-VC7.gmk: |
| 12 | + o reinstated options "-D_CONSOLE -D_WIN32 -DOS" to allow correct |
| 13 | + treatment/opening of data files at run-time. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | + o Electromagnetic processes (standard): |
| 16 | + ------------------------------------ |
| 17 | + + muons: |
| 18 | + o Fixed bug of printout in G4MuIonisation. |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | + o Hadronic processes: |
| 21 | + ------------------ |
| 22 | + + models/chiral_inv_phase_space |
| 23 | + o Added protection against a rounding problem in the CHIPS |
| 24 | + evaporation. Fixes a problem observed in gamma-nuclear reactions. |
| 25 | + + models/generator/de_excitation |
| 26 | + o Fixed usage of arguments to pow() function (porting on |
| 27 | + .NET 7.1 compiler). |
| 28 | + + models/generator/quark_gluon_string |
| 29 | + + models/generator/string_fragmentation |
| 30 | + - Implemented the handling of diffractive photon scattering in |
| 31 | + the parton string models. Mandatory for high energy gamma and |
| 32 | + electro-nuclear reactions. |
| 33 | + + models/neutron_hp: |
| 34 | + o Corrected an error affecting the neutron energy distribution |
| 35 | + in Fission. Mandatory for fission in Uranium 235. |
| 36 | + + stopping: |
| 37 | + o Fixed few cases of memory leaks occuring at every new run. |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | + o Particles: |
| 40 | + --------- |
| 41 | + + Add one void pointer to G4DynamicParticle for the sake of maintaining |
| 42 | + links between pre-assigned decay products and corresponding primary |
| 43 | + particle. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | + o Transportation: |
| 46 | + -------------- |
| 47 | + + G4Transportation: |
| 48 | + o Added verbosity level to control the printing of warnings. |
| 49 | + o Attempt to correct photon problem by using the velocity from current |
| 50 | + medium for massless particles. |
| 51 | + o Use the finalVelocity to update TofF for optical photons. |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | + o Visualization: |
| 54 | + ------------- |
| 55 | + + RayTracer: |
| 56 | + o Fixed incomplete migration to Cuts per Region scheme, causing |
| 57 | + tracing process to crash in release 5.2. |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | + o Examples: |
| 60 | + -------- |
| 61 | + - Updated reference outputs. |
| 62 | + - extended: |
| 63 | + o eventgenerator/HepMC |
| 64 | + + fixed compilation errors due to incorrect code migration from |
| 65 | + g4std wrappers. |
| 66 | + + fixed pedantic compilation warnings on Linux-g++. |
| 67 | + o gdml |
| 68 | + + Fixed trivial compilation errors originated by recent g4std |
| 69 | + migration. |
| 70 | + + Fixed pedantic compilation warnings on Linux-g++. |
| 71 | + o g3tog4 |
| 72 | + + Fixed pedantic compilation warnings on Linux-g++. |
| 73 | + o parallel |
| 74 | + + Fixed pedantic compilation warnings on Linux-g++. |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | + ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 77 | + |
| 78 | + Technical Notes |
| 79 | + --------------- |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | + o This patch should be applied on top of release 5.2. |
| 82 | + o Technical notes distributed for release 5.2 are also applicable and |
| 83 | + valid for this patch. |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +The code and rebuilt binary libraries for release 5.2 are available through |
| 86 | +our "Source Code" Web page: http://cern.ch/geant4 |
