// Class description:
//
// Represents many touchable detector elements differing only in their
// positioning. The elements' positions are calculated by means of a simple
// linear formula, and the elements completely fill the containing mother
// volume.
// 
// G4PVReplica(const G4String& pName,
//                   G4LogicalVolume *pLogical,
//                   G4LogicalVolume *pMother,
//             const EAxis pAxis,
//             const G4int nReplicas,
//             const G4double width,
//             const G4double offset=0);
//
// Replication may occur along:
//
// o Cartesian axes (kXAxis,kYAxis,kZAxis)
//
//   The replications, of specified width have coordinates of
//   form (-width*(nReplicas-1)*0.5+n*width,0,0) where n=0.. nReplicas-1
//   for the case of kXAxis, and are unrotated.
//
// o Radial axis (cylindrical polar) (kRho)
//
//   The replications are cons/tubs sections, centred on the origin
//   and are unrotated.
//   They have radii of width*n+offset to width*(n+1)+offset
//                      where n=0..nReplicas-1
//
// o Phi axis (cylindrical polar) (kPhi)
//   The replications are `phi sections' or wedges, and of cons/tubs form
//   They have phi of offset+n*width to offset+(n+1)*width where
//   n=0..nReplicas-1

// History:
// 29.07.95 P.Kent         First non-stub version
// 26.10.97 J.Apostolakis  Added constructor that takes mother logical volume
// 16.02.98 J.Apostolakis  Added copy number
