Advanced Examples

Purpose

The Advanced Examples illustrate realistic applications of Geant4 in typical experimental environments. They are developed in collaboration with user groups expert in the corresponding experimental domain. The code of the developed examples can be dowloaded together with the Geant4 toolkit in the directory examples/advanced.

Working plans

Working Plan 2025

  • Finish off and submit IAEAphsp example (2)
  • Validation of the molecularDNA example with experimental data from proton and helium ion irradiations and creation of new cancer cell and complex DNA geometries to be integrated in the example (2)
  • Design of realistic numerical phantoms of C. elegans to be included in the stim_pixe_tomography advanced example (2)
  • Implementation of the collimators for minibeam production and small field dosimeters within the eFLASH_radiotherapy example (2)
  • Implementation and validation of the TEPC microdosimeter in exp_microdosimetry example (2)
  • Evaluation of LET dependent RBE both in silico and in vitro for the purpose of validation of the hadrontherapy example and validation with helium ion beams through comparison with publication (2)
  • Maintenance of the webpage (1, 2)
  • Maintenance and code review in selected examples (1, 2)

Note:

  • [*] Optional, and subject to the availability of manpower
  • 1: aimed to be done in first semester
  • 2: aimed to be done in second semester
