60    The center of the scintillator planes S22Y (variable ZPAMS22Y in gpdgeo.inc)
61    and S12X (variable ZPAMS12X in gpdgeo.inc) has been positioned at the
62    nominal height as measured in PAMELA (See the document: "Main geometrical
63    parameters of the PAMELA sub-detectors" by O. Adriani, L. Bonechi,
64    E. Mocchiutti, S. Ricciarini, 20 December 2005). Follows that the positions
65    of S21Y and S12X are higher than those in the cited document due to the fact
66    that in GPAMELA the thickness of the mylar has been considered while in the
67    document it has been neglected.
68    
69    
70    May 2006, Bari & Tor Vergata
71    
72    GIGANTIC RESONANCE FOR NEUTRON DETECTOR ADDED
73    
74       Routines to simulate the gigantic resonance of gammas in Tungsten
75       have been added.  The GPGIG routine is called in GUSTEP if a gamma
76       enter the calorimeter absorber.  This is the steering routine to
77       simulate the production of neutrons from gigantic resonance.  It
78       does checks on STEP lenght. If the range is smaller than the other
79       selected for that step, it does generate the neutron and stops the
80       gamma. Please note that the neutron has now a new particle
81       number. This is to tag the gigantic resonance neutrons.
82    
83    
84    May 2006, Bari & Florence
85    
86    CAL HIT STRUCTURE BUGS FIXED
87    
88       The maximum number of hit is now different for the two hit
89       structures: CALST and CALI. Vectors inizialization and HBOOK
90       ntple booking have been updated. The GPDCAL routine has been fixed
91       so to handle the case in wich hits stored are more than the maximum
92       number of hit.
93       In this case in the ntple up to the maximum number of hits will be stored.
94    
95    April 2006, Bari
96    
97    TOF GEOMETRY AND POSITIONS UPDATED AND NEW MIXTURES ADDED
98    
99       The TOF geometry has been modified. The following boxes have been
100       added: POL1, POL2 and POLY made of polystyrene, S11M, S12M, S21M,
101       S22M, S31M and S32M made of mylar, S1A, S2A and S3 made of air and
102       S1 and S2 made of aluminum. Each scintillator paddle has been put
103       in his mylar box and the other materials: air, polystyrene, and
104       aluminum have been added at their nominal positions.  According to
105       Naples people the araldite glue has been simulated has an air
106       gap. For this work two new materials: the Mylar (MYLAR) and the
107       polystyrene (POLYSTYRENE) with a density of 35 g/l have been
108       defined as a mixture.  The positions of the three bottom
109       scintillator planes that contain respectively the S12X, S22Y and
110       S32X paddles have been regulated according on their official
111       positions in PAMELA.
112    
113    Mar 2006, Bari
114    
115    GEN DATA CARD UPDATED
116    
117       To enable generation on a surface perpendicular to the XY plane,
118       GEN gata card has been updated addingh a new parameter: ZDGEN. This is
119       the dimension, along Z axis , of the generation surface. The Z
120       position will be randomply chosen according to: Z= ZDGEN*RNDM_NUMBER +
121       ZGEN, i.e. Z= GEN(6)*RNDM_NOMBER + GEN(3).
122    
123    Nov 2005, Bari
124    
125    GUHADR AND GUPHAD UPDATED
126    
127       To use GCALOR package the hadronic routines have been updated. The
128       inizialization routine call CALSIG, while the other calls GCALOR.
129    
130    NEW GPKEY ADDED: GPCALOR
131    
132       This logical has been added to enable the GCALOR package. This flag
133       is set to true in GPDAT if the data card: HPAK, is set to
134       'GCAL'. The gpkey.inc has been update accordingly.
135    
136      
137    NEUTRON DETECTOR ADDED. NEW DIR: GPND
138    
139       The neutron detector has been added. At the moment it is just the
140       geometry. The directory structure of the repository has been
141       updated as well. Dimensions has been taken from picture and
142       literature. A full upgrade to the drawing is needed.
143    
144    GCALOR PACKAGE ADDED. NEW DIRs: GPCALOR, GPCALORDES
145    
146       GCALOR package contins the CALOR simulation code and an interface
147       to use it in GEANT. The important feature for us is the usage of
148       the MICAP code. This is facused on the low energy neutron
149       simulation. for details see:
150       http://www.staff.uni-mainz.de/zeitnitz/Gcalor/gcalor.html
151       This package should be distributed with the GEANT library but is
152       not up to date. I did download the latest release and stored into
153       gpcalor directory of the gpamela tree.
154       Then I did clean up the code substituting the explicit inclusion of
155       the commons with a #include cpp directive. In parallel I did
156       extract the commons to include files having the same common name. I
157       did store the include files into a newly created directory:
158       gpcalordes.
159       The Makefile has been updated accordingly.
160       Please note that to avoid conflict with CRENLIB distribution the gcalor source file has been named gpcalor.F
161       NOTE: There are still problem due to different common sizes. In
162       particular the common MICFIL is maller in the geant library
163       libgeant.a . There the subroutines: gmorin, gmxsec, gmplxs, are
164       present and linked using a wrong version of the common. This still needs to be debuged.
165       NOTE2: The auxiliary files with the cross sections: chetc.dat.gz
166       and xsneut.dat.gz, have been added to the aux directory and moved
167       to the working directory, i.e. GPAMELA_BIN. The GCALOR routine will
168       look for CERN_ROOT environment variable. If found files are
169       searched there at first, then in the working directory. A fool
170       proof policy has to be implemented to avoid problem with
171       synchronization fo these files.
