Wide experimental coverage: • HEP (15%) • Space science/astrophysics (20%) • Medical physics and radiobiology (40%) • Detector technologies and others (25%)
Wide Geant4 coverage • Geometry features • Magnetic field • Physics (EM and hadronic) • Biological processes • Hits & Digits • Analysis • Visualisation, UI
Advanced examples are Users’ applications that simulate a specific experimental setup
Investigate, evaluate and demonstrate Geant4 capabilities in various experimental environments
Provide guidance to Geant4 users in realistic experimental applications
Provide connection between developers and users of GEANT4
