13// This file has been provided by Geant4 (simulation toolkit for HEP).

15// Below is a non exhaustive list of Physical CONSTANTS,
16// computed in the Internal HEP System Of Units.
17//
18// Most of them are extracted from the Particle Data Book :
19// Phys. Rev. D volume 50 3-1 (1994) page 1233

22// Author: M.Maire

24// History:
25//
26// 23.02.96 Created
27// 26.03.96 Added constants for standard conditions of temperature
28// and pressure; also added Gas threshold.
29// 29.04.08 use PDG 2006 values
30// 03.11.08 use PDG 2008 values
31// 02.10.17 addopted constant from CLHEP 2.3.4.3
