Work Plan for 2022

Version 1.1

• New examples:

  • Biasing: DXTRAN (MCNP-like option), occurrence interaction of charged particles
  • Hadronic: example for monitoring particle fluences
  • Parameterisation: gflash example for sampling calorimeter (all existing examples show usage in homogeneous media)
  • Polarisation: new Pol02 example
  • RunAndEvent: example for sub-event parallelism
  • Medical/dna examples:
    • molecularDNA: validation and development with protons and He4 ions
    • example for the RBE/LET calculation
    • example for microdosimetry: calculation of microdosimetry spectra in a cylindrical domain at the specific water depth imitating silicon detector ( in the existing example there is randomly placed spherical volume)
    • example for radio-biology
    • example for ultra-high dose rate

• Existing examples improvements:

  • Biasing category: Resolve the overlap in biasing B02/B03 and GB03 examples which implement the same use case.
  • Electromagnetic & Hadronic categories: updating selected examples with usage of G4Accumulable.
  • errorpropagation category:Porting Geant4e to MT.
  • Medical: Extend the DICOM reader with the RT Dose format.
  • Medical/dna:
    • Try to include new cross-sections for gas materials in the already existing icsd example
    • Add the possibility to use the SBS method in the medical/dna/scavenger example.
    • DNA damage in plasmids with IRT

• Code review:

  • Continue with the macros and tests review: make sure that provided macros cover all commands implemented in example and the cdash test covers all important example use cases.

• Coding guidelines:

  • Review the status and update the table on the Wiki page.
  • Finish the examples not yet completed (dicomReader)
