Validation of Geant4 and Fluka Hadronic Physics with Pixel Test-Beam Data
نویسنده
چکیده
In this note we present an update of the validation of Geant4 hadronic physics against the ATLAS pixel 2001 test-beam data. Furthermore, we also report the comparison with Fluka simulation, using the same Geant4 geometry, navigation and digitization.

Physics Validation of LHC Simulations
A review of the strategy and the results for the physics validation of Geant4 and Fluka detector simulation engines for LHC applications is presented. The main focus is on hadronic physics, where most of the efforts are currently concentrated. In particular, comparisons between simulation and test-beam data for the most relevant calorimeter observables, for different experiments and detector te...
متن کاملEvaluation of dose distribution of 12C ion beam in radiotherapy by FLUKA as a Monte Carlo simulation Code
Introduction: Nowadays, the use of heavy ion beams in cancer therapy have been developed worldwide. Materials and Methods: It requires accurate understanding of the complex processes of ion interaction with matter, as it is the calculation the relative dose & range of these ions in matter. In the present study we used FLUKA as a numerical Monte Carlo simula...
متن کاملNew Hadroproduction results from the HARP / PS 214 experiment at CERN PS
The HARP experiment at the CERN Proton Synchroton has collected data for hadroproduction measurements with a large set of targets, ranging from hydrogen to lead, in the momentum range 3.0-15 GeV/c, covering an extended angular range (0.025 ≤ θ ≤ 2.15 rad) with a redundant particle identification. Obtained results may be used for the tuning of neutrino beamline simulations, going from convention...
متن کاملMuon-induced neutron production and detection with GEANT4 and FLUKA
We report on a comparison study of the Monte Carlo packages GEANT4 and FLUKA for simulating neutron production by muons penetrating deep underground. GEANT4 is found to generate fewer neutrons at muon energies above ∼100 GeV, by at most a factor of 2 in some materials, which we attribute mainly to lower neutron production in hadronic cascades. As a practical case study, the muon-induced neutron...
متن کاملGeant4 hadronic physics for space radiation environment.
PURPOSE To test and to develop Geant4 (Geometry And Tracking version 4) Monte Carlo hadronic models with focus on applications in a space radiation environment. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Monte Carlo simulations have been performed using the Geant4 toolkit. Binary (BIC), its extension for incident light ions (BIC-ion) and Bertini (BERT) cascades were used as main Monte Carlo generators. For co...
