32 // Class description:
33 //
34 // An interface of an "importance store" used by importance sampling.
35 // It defines how a importance value together with a "cell"
36 // (a G4VPhysicalVolume and a replica number) has to be added
37 // to the "importance store" and how a importance value can be derived
38 // from the "importance store".
