// class G4FieldTrack
//
// Class description:
//
// Data structure bringing together a magnetic track's state.
// (position, momentum direction & modulus, energy, spin, ... )
// Uses/abilities:
//  - does not maintain any relationship between its data (eg energy/momentum).
//  - for use in Runge-Kutta solver (in passing it the values right now).

// History
// - First version: Oct 14, 1996  John Apostolakis
// - Modified:      Oct 24, 1996  JA: Added dist_on_curve, deleted constructor
//                  Nov  5, 1998  JA: Added energy, momentum, TOF, spin &
//                                    several constructor, access, set methods
//                  May 10, 2006  JA: Added charge, "default" constructor
