Colt 1.2.0

## Package cern.clhep

A Java port of CLHEP 1.4.0 (C++) - A Class Library for High Energy Physics; still quite incomplete - should probably find a way to take cern.clhep out of this distribution and merge cern.clhep with hep.lcd (SLAC).

Class Summary
PhysicalConstants: High Energy Physics coherent Physical Constants.
Units: High Energy Physics coherent system of Units.

## Package cern.clhep Description

A Java port of CLHEP 1.4.0 (C++) - A Class Library for High Energy Physics; still quite incomplete - should probably find a way to take cern.clhep out of this distribution and merge cern.clhep with hep.lcd (SLAC).

Here are the CLHEP/C++ packages and their Java counterparts
