0002 Geant4 5.1 - patch-01 Release Notes
0003 -----------------------------------
0004
0005 19 May 2003
0006
0007 List of fixes included in this public patch to release 5.1:
0008
0009 o Electromagnetic processes (standard):
0010 ------------------------------------
0011 + muons:
0012 - Commented out debug printout in G4MuPairProduction.
0013
0014 o Geometry:
0015 --------
0016 + solids/Boolean:
0017 - Added set/get methods for scale precision in G4ReflectionFactory.
0018 + volumes:
0019 - G4PropagatorInField.cc: fix in ComputeStep() to avoid step computation
0020 if proposed step length is too small. Fixes problem noticed in release
0021 5.1 and occasionally appearing as "Invalid Enum in [solid-type]", also
0022 registered as problem report #485.
0023
0024 o Hadronic processes:
0025 ------------------
0026 + models/generator/kinetic_model
0027 o G4BinaryCascade: fix to cure infinite loop observed in inelastic
0028 scattering of hydrogen.
0029
0030 o Run:
0031 ---
0032 - G4RunManager: fixed behavior of function DefineWorldVolume()
0033 to properly reset navigation history and optimisation in case the
0034 topology of the geometry has changed between runs. Now only a single
0035 call to DefineWorldVolume() is necessary when changing the geometry.
0036 Fixes also problem report #481.
0037 o Added new boolean argument (default set to TRUE) to specify if
0038 topology has changed.
0039 o Forced open/close geometry in method ResetNavigator() to properly
0040 reset G4Navigator status and remove old optimisations.
0041
0042 o Examples:
0043 --------
0044 - novice/N04
0045 o Corrected printout.
0046 - extended/electromagnetic - TestEm1, TestEm2, TestEm3
0047 o Simplified mechanism for updating geometries between runs,
0048 according to changes in G4RunManager::DefineWorldVolume().
0049
0050 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
0051
0052 Technical Notes
0053 ---------------
0054
0055 o This patch should be applied on top of release 5.1.
0056 o Technical notes distributed for release 5.1 are also applicable and
0057 valid for this patch.
