calculateNumberOfDecays()

std::map< G4String, G4int > OMSimDecaysGPS::calculateNumberOfDecays ( G4MaterialPropertiesTable *  p_MPT, G4double  p_timeWindow, G4double  p_mass  )

private

Parameters

p_MPT	Pointer to the material properties table.
p_timeWindow	Time window for decays.
p_mass	Mass of the volume in which decays occur.

Returns

Map of isotopes and their respective number of decays.

configureIsotopeGPS()

void OMSimDecaysGPS::configureIsotopeGPS ( G4String  p_isotope, G4String  p_volumeName  )
