Description joa 2004-10-04 10:53:11 CEST
I believe that there should be a CM->Lab boost for the secondaries before
they are stacked for tracking. I've checked some numbers for
n+74Ge->n'+gammas+74Ge and they make no sense unless one converts from CM->Lab.
This have close to no effect on gammas and very little effect on the neutron
energy (since vcm ~ 1e-3 c) but makes quite a difference on the Ge ion energy...

best regards

Joa

Dear Joa,

  thank you for reporting this. I had a look. You are right, but it is not as
simple as ading a boost in the inelastic model. It is deep down in the
aggregation hirarchy - this may take me a while...

Many greetings,

Hans-Peter.

Sorry for delayed comments.
This is took over me and still under invetigation.

This problem has been deferred until the end of 2007.   Beacuse the problem is
rather deep-seated, we are currently developing an alternate set of high precision neutron processes to fix it.

Hi,

As far as I know, this severe problem is not yet solved. Any ideas when it will 
be solved?

It now looks like an alternative model will be ready by Summer of 2008.  Due to
limited manpower, we will not fix the existing model because it is a large job.
Comment 6 dennis.herbert.wright 2008-07-01 18:57:01 CEST
Model will be replaced by new LLNL-based model by year's end, so no further work
on HP model will be done.

This problem is partially identified and an initial effort for fixing will be include coming beta release of v9.2 and further efforts still on going.

This is fixed at Geant4 v9.2.
