93    PRESSURIZED CONTAINER GEOMETRY:
94       Pressurized container geometry has been updated: top container TSPH
95       now has been placed at the maximum distance, quoted in the ICD,
96       from S1: 5cm. This distance corresponds to the maximum one in
97       flight due to the cover deformation due to the internal
98       pressure. Three thermal cover layers (nylon6, mylar and aluminium,
99       respectively in the new volumes COV1, COV2 and COV3) have been
100       added to the top container.
101    
102    NEW MATERIALS AND TRACKING MEDIA:
103    
104       Two new materials have been implemented: AMg6M mixture for volume
105       TSPH, and Nylon6 mixture for volume COV1.  New tracking medium have
106       been added for Nylon6 Mixture (TNYL), AMg6M Mixture (TAMG) and Iron
107       (TIRO).
108    
109    TOF GEOMETRY:
110       TOF geometry has been updated: Scintillators positions in the
111       GPAMELA reference system have been corrected shifting all
112       scintillator paddle by 23 microns.
113    
114    TRACK NUMBER RECORDED FOR TOF:
115       The TOF structure now register the stack number into the HIT
116       structure. In GUSTEP the stack number is tested, if is greater than
117       0, i.e. the particle is not the primary, the particle number is set
118       to 1000+IPART and passed to GPUTOF. Accordingly, now IPARTOF
119       variable can assume 2000 values instead of 100.
120    
121    POWER LAW SPECTRA GENERATION:
122       PLAW datacard parameters have been increased to 4. The meaning of
123       the 4th parameter is: extract random kinetic energy if PLAW(4)<0.,
124       or extract random momentum if PLAW(4)>=0..
125    
126    Sept 2007, Bari
127    
128    POWER LAW SPECTRA GENERATION:
129       It is now possible to select a power law spectra. Using the
130       datacard: PLAW, is possible to pass the spectral index and the
131       kinetic energy range. In PAWL(1) the user can pass the signed power
132       law index, i.e. PAWL -2.5, will generate a power law spectrum
133       according to exp(-2.5). Please note that the range is in kinetic
134       energy. In gukine the generated particle charateristics will be
135       retrived and the mass calculated from this infos. The KINE data
136       card assigned momentum will be overriden as well.
137    
138    PATHLENGHT CALCULATION MODIFIED IN TOF:
139       The pathlength calulation saved in the TOF hit structure has now
140       been modified. Insted of the pathlenght inside each paddle the
141       average pathlenght from the generation vertex to the hit in the
142       paddle, is saved. In this way it will be possible to calculate the
143       beta using this variable.
144    
145    ERROR IN MATERIAL ASSIGNMENT FOR NEUTRON DETECTOR:
146       The material assigned to the NDTU volume was wrong. It was
147       scintillator, IRON has been asigned now.
148    
149    March 2007, Bari
150    
151    CALO GEOMETRY:
152       An error was found in the original document describing PAMELA
153       geometry.  The shift along X axis of the X view planes are swapped,
154       i.e. they don't start with X=+0.05 but with X=-0.05.  The sequence
155       is: 0.05m -0.05, 0.05, -0.05 and so on.
156    
157    MAKEFILE FIXED:
158       Option -fdebug_kludge has been discharged
159    
160    GASATT WRNING FIXED:
161       There was a warning message from a graphic routine. The GSATT calls has been commented out.
