// Class description:
//
// A class to help place logical or assembly volumes inside a generic 
// container (like STL vector) together with information about its rotation, 
// placement and eventually reflection.
// How to interpret the rotation and translation depends on the class which
// uses a container of these triplets. The first class using G4AssemblyTriplet
// is G4AssemblyVolume.
// The pointer to the logical or assembly volume is copied so this class 
// does not take its ownership and does not delete the object behind.
