Class Summary

Class	Description
Constants	Statically accessible version of CLHEP units and physical constants.
PhysicalConstants	Port of CLHEP's PhysicalConstants.h C++ header file, containing common physical constants from the PDG guide.
SystemOfUnits	Port of CLHEP SystemOfUnits.h C++ header file, which defines CLHEP's system of units for length, time, electric charge, mass, etc.

Package org.lcsim.units.clhep Description

The org.lcsim.units.clhep package is a straightforward port of the header files in the Units include directory of CLHEP 2.0.3.0, written by @author Jeremy McCormick (SLAC). This is the system of units used by Geant4 and also the GDML/LCDD geometry processors. The compact detector description can also use these units.

The @see SystemOfUnits class defines the CLHEP numerical system of units, including length and energy.

The @see PhysicalConstants class defines commonly used physical constants, such as Avogadro's number, the speed of light, and the classical electron radius, among others.
