createPotential()

INuclearPotential const * G4INCL::NuclearPotential::createPotential	(	const PotentialType	type,
		const G4int	theA,
		const G4int	theZ,
		const G4bool	pionPotential
	)

Create an INuclearPotential object.

This is the method that should be used to instantiate objects derived from INuclearPotential. It uses a caching mechanism to minimise thrashing and speed up the code.

Parameters

type	the type of the potential to be created
theA	mass number of the nucleus
theZ	charge number of the nucleus
pionPotential	whether pions should also feel the potential

Returns

a pointer to the nuclear potential
