//                 by Mikhail Kossov, Aug 2007.
//  Header of G4QLowEnergy class (A+A) of the CHIPS Simulation Branch in GEANT4
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// This is a unique CHIPS class for the Ion-Ion Low Energy Inelastic Interactions
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// At present (Aug-07) it is not tested.
// The normalization is based on the temporary G4QIonIonCrossSection class
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Short description: This is a fast low energy algorithm for the
// inelastic interactions of nucleons and nuclei (ions) with nuclei.
// This is a fase-space algorithm, but not quark level. Provides
// nuclear fragments upto alpha only. Never was tumed (but can be).
// ---------------------------------------------------------------
