[Gate-users] A few SI prefixes for units of activity

[Marc Chamberland]

Hi,

I got tired of always having to write out the activity in terms of Bq or Ci in my macro files.

So, I added kBq, MBq, GBq, mCi, and muCi (microcurie) to the list of units supported in Geant4 (and thus in Gate). Replace the following files (starting with G4) in your Geant4 installation and recompile. I think you may also need to recompile Gate to have the changes taken into account.

Depending on how your system is set up, you may need to modify some files in your CLHEP distribution, too. I've also included them below: GlobalSystemOfUnits.h and SystemOfUnits.h.

In any case, the files provided below should be a good starting point for anyone wanting these units in Gate.

Marc
