0122
0123 o Processes - Hadronic:
0124 --------------------
0125 + models/de_excitation

0139 This bug, present since a long time, affects only simulations that use
0140 Radioactive Decay in analogue mode with "external" biasing (e.g. generic
0141 biasing, GPS generator with weights, etc.).
0142 Corresponding fix was done also in deprecated class G4RadioactiveDecay.
0143 Fixed line breaking in printouts. Addressing problem report #2350.
0144

0163 o Removed calls to obsolete ResetCuts() in XrayTelPhysicsList.
0164 + extended/hadronic/Hadr02:
0165 o Migrated to newer CRMC and more modern approach to physics lists.
0166 + extended/hadronic/FissionFragment:
0167 o Fixed CMake build script to define target properly.
0168 o Improved comments.
0169 + extended/medical/GammaTherapy:
