// File name:   G4eeToTwoGammaModel
//
// Author:        Vladimir Ivanchenko on base of Michel Maire code
//
// Creation date: 02.08.2004
//
// Modifications:
// 08-04-05 Major optimisation of internal interfaces (V.Ivanchenko)
// 18-04-05 Compute CrossSectionPerVolume (V.Ivanchenko)
// 06-02-06 ComputeCrossSectionPerElectron, ComputeCrossSectionPerAtom (mma)
// 29-06-06 Fix problem for zero energy incident positron (V.Ivanchenko) 
// 20-10-06 Add theGamma as a member (V.Ivanchenko)
//
//
// Class Description:
//
// Implementation of e+ annihilation into 2 gamma
//
// The secondaries Gamma energies are sampled using the Heitler cross section.
//
// A modified version of the random number techniques of Butcher & Messel
// is used (Nuc Phys 20(1960),15).
//
// GEANT4 internal units.
//
// Note 1: The initial electron is assumed free and at rest.
//
// Note 2: The annihilation processes producing one or more than two photons are
//         ignored, as negligible compared to the two photons process.
