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