// Version:      1.0
// Date:         5/02/04
// Author:       Fan Lei 
// Organisation: QinetiQ ltd.
// Customer:     ESA/ESTEC
//
//
// CHANGE HISTORY
// --------------
//
// Version 1.0, 05/02/2004, Fan Lei, Created.
//      Based on the G4GeneralParticleSource class in Geant4 v6.0
//
//
// Class Description:
//
// The Single Particle Source is designed to extend the functionality of the
// G4ParticleGun class. It is designed to allow specification of input
// particles in terms of position, direction (or angular) and energy
// distributions.  It is used by the General Particle source class
// and it is derived from G4VPrimaryGenerator.
//
//
// MEMBER FUNCTIONS
// ----------------
//
// G4SingleParticleSource ()
//    Constructor: Initializes variables and instantiates the 
//                 Messenger and Navigator classes
//
// ~G4SingleParticleSource ()
//    Destructor:  deletes Messenger and prints out run information.
//
// void GeneratePrimaryVertex(G4Event *evt)
//    Generate the particles initial parameters.
//
//  G4SPSPosDistribution* GetPosDist()
//    Return a pointer to the position distribution generator
//

//     Return a pointer to the energy distribution generator
//
//  G4SPSRandomGenerator* GetBiasRndm() {return biasRndm;};
//     Return a pointer to the biased random number generator
//
//  void SetVerbosity(G4int);
//     Set the verbosity level.
//
//  void SetParticleDefinition ();
//  G4ParticleDefinition * GetParticleDefinition () 
//     Get/Set the particle definition of the primary track
//
//  void SetParticleCharge(G4double aCharge) 
//     set the charge state of the primary track
//
//  inline void SetParticlePolarization (G4ThreeVector aVal) 
//  inline G4ThreeVector GetParticlePolarization ()
//     Set/Get the polarization state of the primary track
//
//  inline void SetParticleTime(G4double aTime)  { particle_time = aTime; };
//  inline G4double GetParticleTime()  { return particle_time; };
//     Set/Get the Time.
//
//  inline void SetNumberOfParticles(G4int i) 
//  inline G4int GetNumberOfParticles() 
//     set/get the number of particles to be generated in the primary track
//
//  inline G4ThreeVector GetParticlePosition()  
//  inline G4ThreeVector GetParticleMomentumDirection()  
//  inline G4double GetParticleEnergy()  
//     get the position, direction, and energy of the current particle
