0002                  Geant4 9.4 - patch-04 Release Notes
0003                  -----------------------------------
0004 
0005                                                             13 April 2012
0006 
0007 List of fixes included in this public patch since the public release 9.4.p03:
0008 
0009   o Geometry:
0010     --------
0011     + Magnetic Field:
0012       o G4FieldTrack: added inline method to set the Rest Mass. Needed in
0013         order to reset this and keep reuse the same G4FieldTrack in a
0014         client across tracks.
0015 
0016   o Global:
0017     ------
0018     + G4Pow: reduced vector for factorial from 512 to 170 (result should be
0019       below DBL_MAX). Fixed computation of log(factorial).
0020       Added protection in powN() method for high exponent values.
0021     + Changed date for patch-04 to release 9.4.
0022 
0023   o Electromagnetic Processes:
0024     -------------------------
0025     + Standard:
0026       o G4UrbanMscModel92, G4UrbanMscModel93, G4UrbanMscModel95: added
0027         protection against big scattering angles for e+- (E > 20 MeV); the
0028         protection cuts tail of scattering angles to avoid artificial
0029         scattering of high energy e+-.
0030       o G4WentzelVIModel: fixed algorithm for sampling of single scattering 
0031         along step.
0032       o G4WentzelOKandVIxSection: fixed incorrect angular limit for protons.
0033         Fixed screening function for low Z materials.
0034       o G4UniversalFluctuation: fixed sampling at small steps (below 10 um)
0035         in heavy media about shift in range of 3 MeV muons.
0036       o G4eCoulombScatteringModel: fixed initialisation of base class data
0037         in method SetLowEnergyLimit(). Fixed cross-section in compounds.
0038 
0039   o Hadronic Processes:
0040     ------------------
0041     + models/CHIPS:
0042       o G4QCaptureAtRest: added check on 4-momentum balance for violations
0043         of more than 2 GeV; repeat sampling again. Check baryon number of
0044         final state and take into account nuclear recoil at rest which is
0045         not produced as a final particle.
0046 
0047   o Track:
0048     -----
0049     + Fix to reset 'RestMass' in G4FieldTrackUpdator::Update() method
0050       as it is used to initialise each track by ParallelWorldScoringProcess.
0051 
0052  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
0053 
0054                              Technical Notes
0055                              --------------- 
0056 
0057   o  This patch should be applied on top of release 9.4 or 9.4.p03.
0058   o  Technical notes distributed for release 9.4 are also applicable and
0059      valid for this patch.
