0031
0032 o Geometry:
0033 --------
0034 + management:
0035 o Fix to G4VSolid::EstimateCubicVolume() to make proper use of specified
0036 accuracy. Addressing problem report #1493.
0037 + navigation:

0041 o Correctly initialise fSPhi to zero in G4Sphere constructor.
0042 + solids/specific:
0043 o Fix in G4SurfaceVoxelizer affecting tessellated-solid (and
0044 extruded-solid) for wrong computation of DistanceToIn(p,v) for
0045 points outside, when optimisation is active.
0046 o Fix in G4TessellatedSolid::DistanceToIn(p,v) for specific cases
0047 where points are located near surface.
0048 o Fix in G4GenericTrap::InsidePolygone() to check if p lies between
0049 the two extremes of the segment. Addressing problem report #1541.
0050
0051 o Global:
0052 ------
0053 + Updated date and version for 9.6.p03.
0054
0055 o Electromagnetic Processes:
0056 -------------------------

0065 of 1st step in a volume (useDistanceToBoundary option).
0066 o G4NuclearStopping: do not reset dynamic charge of an ion, because
0067 G4ionIonisation process is responsible for that (fix for partially
0068 charged ion beam)
0069 + Utils:
0070 o G4VMultipleScattering: increased lowest limit from 1 eV to 10 eV to
0071 avoid semi-infinite loop for low-energy particle tracking;
0072 fixed re-computation of post-step safety in AlongStepDoIt method.
0073 o G4VEnergyLossProcess, G4VEmProcess: set interaction length to
0074 DBL_MAX if process is de-activated (fixed problem of DNA simulation);
0075 fixed CrossSectionPerVolume access method.
0076 o Fixed typo in G4EmBiasingManager.
0077
0078 o Generic Processes:
0079 -----------------
0080 + Decay:
0081 o Fixed problem of wrong global time for secondaries in case that the
0082 primary track stops during along step. Addressing problem report #1555.
0083
0084 o Hadronic Processes:
0085 ------------------
0086 + cross_sections:
0087 o Code optimization for G4ElectroNuclearCrossSection and
0088 G4PhotoNuclearCrossSection.
0089 + models/cascade:
0090 o G4NucleiModel: fixed rare cases of non-reproducibility in
0091 method generateParticleFate(). Some data was not properly
0092 initialized in the case that the interaction-partners list has
0093 one single element.
0094 o Fixed implementation of G4CascadeParameters singleton to follow
0095 canonical format. Addressing problem report #1557.
0096 o G4ParticleLargerEkin, G4ParticleLargerBeta: correct ">=" to ">"
0097 conditions to avoid error in case that both inputs are identical.
0098 + models/de_excitation:
0099 o G4NeutronRadCapture: fixed run time memory leak, fixed time of
0100 reaction products.
0101 o G4ExcitationHandler: if FermiBreakUp returns unchanged fragment
0102 delete it to avoid minor memory leak; addressing HyperNews post
0103 #1371. Fixed typo in GetPhotoEvaporation() method name.
0104 Fixed typo in the SetMaxAForFermiBreakUp() method.
0105 o G4FermiFragmentsPool: fixed typo for use of G4endl for end line.
0106 o G4LevelReader, G4NuclearLevelManager: fixed trivial compilation issues
0107 detected on Visual C++ 18.
0108 + models/em_dissociation:
0109 o Fixed memory leak of products from G4ExcitationHandler.
0110 + models/parton_string/hadronization:
0111 o Fixed two mistakes in the index manipulation of the BaryonWeight
0112 4-dimensional vector in G4LundStringFragmentation.
0113 + models/parton_string/management:
0114 o Fix to remove 'inline' qualifier from methods in G4VParticipants.cc
0115 and G4PomeronCrossSection.cc, responsible for cases of run-time
0116 errors for undefined symbols in library...
0117 + stopping:
0118 o G4MuMinusCapturePrecompound: fixed case of infinite loop by
0119 reimplementing old algorithm of mu- capture which does not include
0120 direct muon reaction but only considering de-excitation of residual
0121 fragment. Addressing problem report #1536.
0122
0123 o Materials:
0124 ---------
0125 + G4IonisParamMat: fixed density effect parameterisation.
0126
0127 o Particles:
0128 ---------
0129 + Fixed properties for heavy anti-baryons G4AntiLambdab, G4AntiSigmabZero
0130 and G4AntiLambdacPlus. Addressing problem report #1571.
0131
0132 o Persistency:
0133 -----------
0134 + ascii:
0135 o Corrected typo in G4tgrPlaceParameterisation::operator<<().
0136 Addressing problem report #1504.
0137 o Corrected typo in G4tgrUtils::WordIsUnit().
0138 o Replaced deprecated calls to solids accessor methods.
0139 + gdml:
0140 o Fix in G4GDMLReadParamvol::ParametersRead() for reading parameterised
0141 Sphere, Orb, Torus and Para.
0142 o Replaced deprecated calls to G4Sphere accessor methods.
0143
0144 o Physics Lists:
0145 -------------
0146 + G4EmStandardPhysics_option3, G4EmStandardPhysics_option4,
0147 G4EmLivermorePhysics, G4EmPenelopePhysics: use RangeFactor=0.01
0148 for increased simulation accuracy; use G4UrbanMscModel96.
0149
0150 o Visualization:
0151 -------------
0152 + OpenGL:
0153 o Fixed bug in the G4OpenGLQtViewer for viewer iterator increment
0154 checking. Corrected use of 'true' in G4OpenGLQtExportDialog.
0155
0156 o Examples:
0157 --------
0158 + Updated reference outputs.
