// GEANT4 Class header file
//
// File name:     G4GoudsmitSaundersonMscModel
//
// Author:        Mihaly Novak / (Omrane Kadri)
//
// Creation date: 20.02.2009
//
// Modifications:
// 04.03.2009 V.Ivanchenko cleanup and format according to Geant4 EM style
// 12.05.2010 O.Kadri: adding Qn1 and Qn12 as private doubles
// 18.05.2015 M. Novak provide PLERIMINARYY version of updated class.
//            All algorithms of the class were revised and updated, new methods added.
//            A new version of Kawrakow-Bielajew Goudsmit-Saunderson MSC model
//            based on the screened Rutherford DCS for elastic scattering of
//            electrons/positrons has been introduced[1,2]. The corresponding MSC
//            angular distributions over a 2D parameter grid have been recomputed
//            and the CDFs are now stored in a variable transformed (smooth) form[2,3]
//            together with the corresponding rational interpolation parameters.
//            These angular distributions are handled by the new
//            G4GoudsmitSaundersonTable class that is responsible to sample if
//            it was no, single, few or multiple scattering case and delivers the
//            angular deflection (i.e. cos(theta) and sin(theta)).
//            Two screening options are provided:
//             - if fgIsUsePWATotalXsecData=TRUE i.e. SetOptionPWAScreening(TRUE)
//               was called before initialisation: screening parameter value A is
//               determined such that the first transport coefficient G1(A)
//               computed according to the screened Rutherford DCS for elastic
//               scattering will reproduce the one computed from the PWA elastic
//               and first transport mean free paths[4].
//             - if fgIsUsePWATotalXsecData=FALSE i.e. default value or
//               SetOptionPWAScreening(FALSE) was called before initialisation:
//               screening parameter value A is computed according to Moliere's
//               formula (by using material dependent parameters \chi_cc2 and b_c
//               precomputed for each material used at initialization in
//               G4GoudsmitSaundersonTable) [3]
//            Elastic and first trasport mean free paths are used consistently.
//            The new version is self-consistent, several times faster, more
//            robust and accurate compared to the earlier version.
//            Spin effects as well as a more accurate energy loss correction and
//            computations of Lewis moments will be implemented later on.
// 02.09.2015 M. Novak: first version of new step limit is provided.
//            fUseSafetyPlus corresponds to Urban fUseSafety (default)
//            fUseDistanceToBoundary corresponds to Urban fUseDistanceToBoundary
//            fUseSafety  corresponds to EGSnrc error-free stepping algorithm
//            Range factor can be significantly higher at each case than in Urban.
//
// Class description:
//   Kawrakow-Bielajew Goudsmit-Saunderson MSC model based on the screened
//   Rutherford DCS for elastic scattering of electrons/positrons. Step limitation
//   algorithm as well as true to geomerty and geometry to true step length
//   computations are adopted from Urban model[5].
