    Oral

    In this presentation, we will overview the scoring functionality of Geant4 simulation toolkit that allows users to score various physics quantities such as flux or dose distribution without writing much of C++ code. This functionality is of particular benefit for shielding or radiation protection studies where no particular detector has to be simulated. We will also briefly introduce Geant4’s...

    Oral

    There is a class of simulation problems for which the events of interest are rare. The shielding problem -with very few particles exiting the shield, where the dose estimates are to be made-, the very thin detector case -with very few particles interacting in it- or the dose estimate in an electronic chip inside a satellite -because of the tiny volume of the chip compared to the large...

    Content
    The interaction physics and the transport algorithm of the electron-photon Monte Carlo code system PENELOPE have been introduced as an option in the Geant4 toolkit. PENELOPE implements a strict class II (mixed) algorithm for the simulation of electrons and positrons in matter. The algorithm is defined by cutoff values of the energy loss for inelastic interactions and bremsstrahlung...

    A rich photo-fission program is proposed at the new Extreme Light Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) facility in Magurele-Bucharest, Romania. It is based on the highest brilliance gamma beam system (GBS) that will be available at ELI-NP with energies up to 20 MeV.

    In one type of experiments, radioactive ion beams (RIBs), formed from the fission fragments produced by...

    Oral

    The ExpertRoot framework supports all the stages of the lifecycle of an experiment:
    planning and feasibility studies, detailed simulations of the detector response and digitization, particle identification (PID)
    and reconstruction, reconstruction of entire events.

    The interaction with GEANT4 classes is implemented via VMC.
    Thoroughly control over the production of secondaries, tuning of...

    Oral

    A very brilliant gamma beam system with pencil-size beamspot will be installed at the Extreme Light Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP), which is one of the pillars of the ELI Project. Monte Carlo simulations are crucial for the proper implementation of the instruments that will be used for experiments and for external users who come to perform experiments at the facility. For this...
