Patch Release 3.1.2

We are happy to announce the second patch release in the 3.1 series of Allpix Squared, version 3.1.2. This release contains 20 commits over the previous patch release 3.1.1 and fixes a host of issues discovered by users across the framework. The release is available as Docker image, CVMFS installation and source code from the repository.

The following changes have been made:

  • Support for Geant4 11.3 (changed interface to WorkerRunManager)
  • Fixed a missing floating-point notation in the arsenic version of the Masetti mobility model. This led to an error being reported when used in the past.
  • Improved the documentation for the Quay mobility model.
  • DepositionGenerator Module:
    • Register the Geant4 step hook for event interruption in the action initializer when reading particles from event generators.
    • Adjust input energy from GENIE files to be GeV, not MeV.
  • ElectricFieldReader Module: This module now allows explicitly specifying the field units used in the loaded file via the parameter file_units. Default is still V/cm.
  • Fixed some spelling mistakes in code comments and manual.
