==Version 1.0==
 +
 +
===Known bugs and issues===
 +
 +
In all versions, it is possible to save an empty session over an existing session.  Frequent backups of the working directory should be made.
 +
 +
This version is not backward-compatible with the beta versions; users must re-define the experimental
 +
definitions.  Level and matrix data CAN be exported from beta versions and imported to this version.  All
 +
later versions are expected to preserve backward compatibility with version 1.0.
 +
Plots of collision functions cannot be generated for all states.
 +
 +
===Description===
 +
 +
Faster setup of calculations.
 +
 +
Defining complicated detector arrays can be done in one operation.
 +
 +
A library of detector types and arrays is included.
 +
 +
Loading of all experimental yield data can be done in one operation.
 +
 +
Simulations now use the standard definition of Ge efficiency.
 +
 +
Simulated yield tables are clearer.
 +
 +
Stopping power and exit energy are calculated by Elast automatically.
 +
 +
The Rochester SRIM server can be called for more accurate stopping power data.
 +
 +
Thick-target experiments are handled accurately, including backscatter detection from the surface.
 +
 +
The correction to the gamma angular distribution now includes the motion of the emitting nucleus.
 +
 +
Deorientation coefficients and lifetimes can be calulated in a few seconds.
 +
 +
====Bug-fixes====
 +
 +
Merging, deleting and reordering of bands are allowed at any time.
 +
 +
Any number of bands can be merged.  (See restrictions regarding duplicate spin states and different-parity
 +
states in one band.)
 +
 +
Malfunctions during plotting of yield data are fixed. The overall normalization for all data sets is now
 +
used in plots comparing measured and predicted yields.
 +
 +
The reported chi-squared values are properly-weighted on plots and in reports.  (Chi-squared and
 +
normalization was done correctly in fits in all versions.)
 +
 +
It is no longer necessary to reload yield data after changing the level scheme, unless new states are
 +
added.
 +
 +
===Recommendations===
 +
 +
To migrate from a beta version to version 1.0, export the level scheme and matrix, then import them into a
 +
new session in this version.
