34 // Creation date: 01.05.2005
35 //
36 // Modifications:
37 // 27-07-06 added some test routines (P.Starovoitov)
38 // 25-08-06 modified name of test routines (A.Schaelicke)

40 // Class Description:
41 //
42 // Provides Stokesvector representation employed in implementation of
43 // polarized processes.
44 //
45 // aim:
46 // - store three components of a stokesvector
47 // - distinguish between boson or fermion state (different transformations)
48 // - provide unique definition of reference frame (cf. G4PolarizationHelper)
