Description Nicola Mori 2014-07-20 21:39:43 CEST
The DPMJET interface in Hadr02 seems to be somewhat broken. Compiling the Hadr02 example in 9.6.p03 and running 200 events at 500 GeV (by modifying accordingly dpmjet.in) I get these results:

========================================================
Beam particle                        S32[0.0]
Beam Energy(GeV)                     500
Number of events                     200
Average energy deposit (GeV)         7.442   RMS(GeV) 4.578
Average number of steps              58.33
Average number of gamma              3.615
Average number of e-                 0.005
Average number of e+                 0.005
Average number of neutrons           6.725
Average number of protons            7.135
Average number of antiprotons        0.005
Average number of pi+ & pi-          10.23
Average number of pi0                6.54
Average number of kaons              0.82
Average number of muons              0.01
Average number of deuterons+tritons  0.675
Average number of He3+alpha          1.04
Average number of ions               1.225
========================================================

which seem fine. When doing the same with 10.00.p02 I get:

========================================================
Beam particle                        S32
Beam Energy(GeV)                     500
Number of events                     200
Average energy deposit (GeV)         7.427   RMS(GeV) 4.652
Average number of steps              58.18
Average number of gamma              0
Average number of e-                 0
Average number of e+                 0
Average number of neutrons           31.96
Average number of protons            36.16
Average number of antiprotons        0
Average number of pi+ & pi-          0
Average number of pi0                0
Average number of kaons              0
Average number of muons              0
Average number of deuterons+tritons  0
Average number of He3+alpha          0
Average number of ions               0
========================================================

It seems that only protons and neutrons are produced. Moreover, with 10.00.p02 I get a lot of warnings like this:

-------- WWWW ------- G4Exception-START -------- WWWW -------
*** G4Exception : had012
      issued by : G4HadronicProcess:CheckResult()
Warning: Bad energy non-conservation detected, will re-sample the interaction
 Process / Model: ionInelastic / DPMJET2_5
 Primary: S32 (1000160320), E= 519927, target nucleus (13,27)
 E(initial - final) = 519516 MeV.

*** This is just a warning message. ***
-------- WWWW -------- G4Exception-END --------- WWWW -------

which does not show up with 9.6.p03.

Hello Nicola,

in 10.0 new checks are added for 4-momentim balance. Problems likely were in 9.6 version already. Absence of gamma, e- in the new run will be investigated.

Hello,

Cannot be fixed because the DPMJET interface has been dropped.

Hi there,

We have an interface of DPMJET2.5 which works with geant4 10.1 in single and MT modes.  

Everybody interesting in is  welcome to contact me.

Best Regards, Vitali
