The Geant4 Visualisation System is a multi-driver graphics system designed to serve the Geant4 Simulation Toolkit. It is aimed at the visualization of Geant4 data, primarily detector descriptions and simulated particle trajectories and hits. It can handle a variety of graphical technologies simultaneously and interchangeably, allowing the user to choose the visual representation most appropriat...

The algorithm for the simulation of energy losses of low energy ions is described. The details of its implementation in GEANT4 are discussed. The comparison of the simulation results with the experimental data is presented. 1 Introduction GEANT4[1] is a toolkit for Monte Carlo particle transport simulation for a wide range of applications, based on the Object Oriented technology. The GEANT4 mod...

geant4 is an open source simulation toolkit based on c++, which its advantages progressively lead to applications in research domains especially modeling the biological effects of ionizing radiation at the sub-cellular scale. however, it was shown that geant4 does not give a reasonable result in the prediction of antiproton dose especially in bragg peak. one of the reasons could be lack of a re...

Introduction: Spatial dose distribution around the radionuclides sources is required for optimized treatment planning in radioimmunotherapy. At present, the main source of data for cellular dosimetry is the s-values provided by MIRD. However, the MIRD s-values have been calculated based on analytical formula in which no electrons straggling is taken to account. In this study, we used Geant4-DNA...

Geant4 is a Monte Carlo simulation Toolkit, describing the interactions of particles with matter. Geant4 is widely used in radiation physics research, from High Energy Physics, to medical physics and space science, thanks to its sophisticated physics component, coupled with advanced functionality in geometry description. Geant4 is widely used at the Centre for Medical Radiation Physics (CMRP), ...

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 ...

20 Modelling the radio-induced effects in biological medium requires accurate physics models to 21 describe in detail the main physical interactions induced by all the charged particles present in 22 the irradiated medium (secondary as well as primary ones). These interactions include 23 inelastic events like ionization and excitation processes as well as elastic scattering, the latter 24 being...
