A Geant4 physics list for spallation and related nuclear physics applications based on INCL and ABLA models
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new Geant4 physics list is prepared for nuclear physics applications in the domain dominated by spallation. The C++ translation of original Fortran INCL intra-nuclear cascade and ABLA fission/de-excitation codes are used in the physics list. The INCL model prepared is well established for targets heavier than Aluminium and projectile energies from ∼ 150 MeV up to 2.5 GeV ∼ 3 GeV. Validity of the new Geant4 physics list is demonstrated, and the neutron double differential cross sections and residual nuclei production discussed. Foreseen improvements of the physics models for the treatment of light targets (Carbon Oxygen) and light ion beams (up to Carbon) are discussed.

Implementation of INCL cascade and ABLA evaporation codes in Geant4
We introduce a new implementation of the Liège cascade INCL4.2 and of the evaporation/fission code ABLA v3 in Geant4. INCL treats the cascade of hadron, deuterium, tritium, and helium projectiles of energies up to 3 GeV, while ABLA, based on evaporation and fission, provides a treatment of the excited nucleus produced at the end of the cascade. Details of the implementation of INCL and ABLA in ...

We present INCL intra-nuclear cascade and ABLA de-excitation (evaporation/fission) models that can be used to calculate collisions between projectile particles and nuclei at energies from 0.2 to 3 GeV. Supported projectiles are proton, neutron, pions and light ions up to alpha. The optimal target materials range from carbon to uranium. We have extended the INCL model light ion projectile suppor...
