  9 
 10     Example of tracking in magnetic field where field associated
 11     to selected logical volumes varies.
 12 
 13     A global and a local magnetic field are defined in
 14     the ConstructSDandField() method in the F03DetectorConstruction class 
 15     using the G4FieldBuilder class.
 16     The local magnetic field is set to the "Radiator" volume.
 17 
 18     The interactive commands, under the /field directory, are created with
 19     the instantiation of G4FieldBuilder in the F03DetectorConstruction constructor,
 20 
 21  1- GEOMETRY DEFINITION
 22 
 23   The "Absorber" is a solid made of a given material.
 24 
 25   Three parameters define the absorber :
 26   - the material of the absorber,
 27   - the thickness of an absorber,
 28   - the transverse size of the absorber (the input face is a square).
 29 
 30         The volume "World" contains the "Absorber".
 31         In this test the parameters of the "World" can be changed , too.
 32 
 33     A transverse global uniform magnetic field can be applied.
 34   In addition, the "Radiator" volume, which is placed in geometry next
 35     to the absorber, has a local magnetic field.
 36 
 37   The default geometry is constructed in F03DetectorConstruction class,
 38   but all the parameters can be changed via
 39   the commands defined in the F03DetectorMessenger class.
 40 
 41  2- AN EVENT : THE PRIMARY GENERATOR
 42 
 43   The primary kinematic consists of a single particle which hits the
 44   absorber perpendicular to the input face. The type of the particle
 45   and its energy are set in the F03PrimaryGeneratorAction class, and can
 46   be changed via the G4 build-in commands of G4ParticleGun class (see
 47   the macros provided with this example).
 48 
 49     It is also possible to change the position of the primary particle vertex
 50     or activate its randomization via the commands defined in  the
 51     F01PrimaryGeneratorMessenger class.
 52 
 53   A RUN is a set of events.
 54 
 55  3- DETECTOR RESPONSE
 56 
 57   A HIT is a record, event per event , of all the
 58   informations needed to simulate and analyse the detector response.
 59 
 60   In this example a F03CalorHit is defined as a set of 2 informations:
 61   - the total energy deposit in the absorber,
 62   - the total tracklength of all charged particles in the absorber,
 63 
 64   Therefore  the absorber is declared
 65   'sensitive detector' (SD), see F03CalorimeterSD, which means they can contribute to the hit.
 66 
 67  4- PHYSICS LIST
 68 
 69      The particle's type and the physic processes which will be available
 70      in this example are set in the FTFP_BERT physics list. This physics list
 71      requires data files for electromagnetic and hadronic processes.

 74  5- HOW TO START ?
 75 
 76   - Execute field03 in 'batch' mode from macro files e.g.
 77     % ./field03 field03.in
 78 
 79   - Execute field03 in 'interactive' mode with visualization e.g.
 80     % ./field03
 81     ....
 82     Idle> /run/beamOn 1
 83     ....
