Detailed Description

G4FissionFragmentGenerator is the front end class to be used by the user for handling all fission event generation.

This class is intended to be instantiated for one type of fission event for as specific isotope/isomer, fission type, and incident neutron energy. For this reason no functions exist to change or modify these values once the class in constructed. A new class must be created by the user for each type of fission event, if such functionality is desired.

G4SetAlphaProduction()
