Algorithms and parameters for improved accuracy in physics data libraries
M. Batic, M. Han, S. Hauf +6
Recent efforts for the improvement of the accuracy of physics data libraries used in particle transport are summarized. Results are reported about a large scale validation analysis…
Ionisation Models for Nano-Scale Simulation
H. Seo, M. G. Pia, P. Saracco +1
Two theory-driven models of electron ionization cross sections, the Binary-Encounter-Bethe model and the Deutsch-Märk model, have been design and implemented; they are intended to…
New models for PIXE simulation with Geant4
M. G. Pia, G. Weidenspointner, M. Augelli +4
Particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE) is a physical effect that is not yet adequately modelled in Geant4. The current status as in Geant4 9.2 release is reviewed and new developme…
Inter-Comparison and Validation of Geant4 Photon Interaction Models
M. Augelli, M. Begalli, M. G. Pia +7
A R&D project, named Nano5, has been recently launched to study an architectural design in view of addressing new experimental issues related to particle transport in high energy p…
Recent Developments on PIXE Simulation with Geant4
M. G. Pia, G. Weidenspointner, M. Augelli +4
Particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE) is an important physical effect that is not yet adequately modelled in Geant4. This paper provides a critical analysis of the problem domain…
Re-engineering a nanodosimetry Monte Carlo code into Geant4: software design and first results
E. Gargioni, V. Grichine, M. G. Pia
A set of physics models for nanodosimetry simulation is being re-engineered for use in Geant4-based simulations. This extension of Geant4 capabilities is part of a larger scale R&D…
