0024 // History:
0025 //
0026 // 23.02.96 Created
0027 // 26.03.96 Added constants for standard conditions of temperature
0028 //          and pressure; also added Gas threshold.
0029 // 29.04.08   use PDG 2006 values
0030 // 03.11.08   use PDG 2008 values
0031 // 02.10.17   addopted constant from CLHEP 2.3.4.3
