   5 =============
   6   5.10.01:
   7      Update of physics list and physics constructors
   8      following update of ExN04 in geant4 V 3.2.
   9
  10   21.8.01:
  11      General revision of G3 cuts/process controls:
  12      TG4SpecialCuts, TG4SpecialControls processes tested, corrected,
  13      introduced mapping of physics processes to TG4G3Control constants,
  14      using enum types (TG4G3Cut/Control) everywhere where apropriate;
  15      see also global.
  16
  17      New classes:
  18      TG4VSpecialCuts (abstract)
  19      TG4SpecialCutsForX,
  20          X = Electron, Eplus, Gamma, Muon, ChargedHadron, NeutralHadron, Other
  21          replaced TG4SpecialCuts (avoids using not well understandable
  22          pointer to member functions);
  23      TG4SpecialControls
  24          miscelaneous corrections after testing;
  25      TG4PhysicsManager
  26          added map of physics processes to TG4G3Control (fProcessControlMap);
  27      TG4PhysicsConstructor*
  28          added mapping of created physics processes to TG4G3Control
  29          constants (using TG4ProcessControlMap) and to AliMCProcess
  30          constants (using TG4ProcessMCMap);
  31      TG4ModularPhysicsList
  32          added method for activation/inactivation of physics processes
  33          according to the general process controls.
  34
  35   13.2.01:
  36      New classes:
  37        TG4ModularPhysicsList,
  38        TG4PhysicsConstructorXX,
  39           XX = EM, Hadron, Optical, SpecialCuts, SpecialControls
  40           replaced the previous TG4PhysicsList;
  41        TG4ParticlesManager, TG4G3PhysicsManager
  42           - separated from TG4PhysicsManager;
  43
  44      Renamed/removed classes:
  45        TG3Cut, TG3CutVector - renamed to TG4G3Cut, TG4G3CutVector
  46        TG3Flag, TG3FlagVector - renamed to TG4G3Control, TG4G3ControlVector
  47           - moved to global category (as they are used in TG4Limits)
  48        TG3ParticleWSP -> TG4G3ParticleWSP
  49        TG3Units -> TG4G3Units
  50        TG4SpecialFlags -> TG4SpecialControls
  51        TG4PhysicsListMessenger -> removed;
  52           the commands defined here were moved to TG4Messenger
  53
  54   6.6.00:
  55      TG4PhysicsList: updated according the example N04;
  56         all particles are instantiated; hadronic processes
  57         are added;
  58      TG4PhysicsListMessenger: new class;
  59         implements commands for selection of the processes
  60         (setOptical, setHadron, setSpecialCuts/Flags)
  61
  62
  63   28.3.00:
  64      New subcategory:
  65      Classes: TG4CutVector, TG4FlagVector, TG4SpecialCuts, TG4SpecialFlags,
  66               TG4PhysicsList, TG4PhysicsManager, TG4G3Defaults
  67      Enum types: TG3Cut, TG3Flag, TG3ParticleWSP
