Lifetime of G4Triton

Particles, Track, Event, Run and Biasing

Dear all,

I have seen that in the definition of G4Triton, the half-life is provided where the mean lifetime should be, unlike for the rest of ions. See the image below and note that 12.32 years is the half-life. I wonder whether I am missing something or it is simply wrong.

Dear Francisco,

you are not missing anything, we (Geant4) are simply wrong!
It will be corrected for the next release (11.1, scheduled in December), and in the next patch of 11.0 (11.0.p04, not yet scheduled).
Thanks for spotting and reporting it to us!

Best regards,
Alberto
