The meaning of the variables in the data structure JVOLUM shown
in fig.
is the following:
- ISEARC
- search flag [GEOM400], [GEOM410]:
- =0
- volume positioning order or ordering by GSNEXT/GSNEAR;
- <0
- binary search as defined by GSORD;
- >0
- user ordering GSUNEA/GUNEAR;
- ISHAPE
- system shape number (see [GEOM050];
- NIN
- number of volumes contained in the mother volume --
if negative the volume is divided;
- NMED
- medium number for the volume;
- NPAR
- number of shape parameters;
- NATT
- number of attributes;
- PAR
- array of shape parameters;
- IAT
- array of attributes;
- IAXIS
- direction of the division (see [GEOM130]);
- IVO
- system volume number;
- NDIV
- number of divisions ( -NDVMX, if computed dynamically,
see [GEOM140]);
- C0
- coordinate value at which the division starts;
- STEP
- coordinate step for the division;
- NR
- user copy number;
- IROT
- rotation matrix number defining the orientation of the volume
with respect to the mother reference system;
- X,Y,Z
- position of the volume with respect to the mother reference
system;
- KONLY
- ONLY/MANY flag, see [GEOM110] for more information;
