// Author: Luciano Pandola
//         on base of G4LowEnergyIonisation developed by A.Forti and V.Ivanchenko
//
// History:
// --------
// 12 Jan 2009   L Pandola    Migration from process to model 
// 03 Mar 2009   L Pandola    Bug fix (release memory in the destructor)
// 15 Apr 2009   V Ivanchenko Cleanup initialisation and generation of secondaries:
//                  - apply internal high-energy limit only in constructor 
//                  - do not apply low-energy limit (default is 0)
//                  - simplify sampling of deexcitation by using cut in energy
//                  - set activation of Auger "false"
//                  - remove initialisation of element selectors
// 19 May 2009   L Pandola    Explicitely set to zero pointers deleted in 
//                            Initialise(), since they might be checked later on
// 23 Oct 2009   L Pandola
//                  - atomic deexcitation managed via G4VEmModel::DeexcitationFlag() is
//                    set as "true" (default would be false)
// 12 Oct 2010   L Pandola
//                  - add debugging information about energy in 
//                    SampleDeexcitationAlongStep()
//                  - generate fluorescence SampleDeexcitationAlongStep() only above 
//                    the cuts.
// 01 Jun 2011   V Ivanchenko general cleanup - all old deexcitation code removed
