“…In addition, fluorescence emission from excited atoms is also generated; the implementation of the Auger effect is in progress. The implementation of electron and gamma processes is based on the exploitation of evaluated data libraries (EPDL97 [63], EEDL [64] and EADL [65]) that provide data for the determination of cross-sections and the sampling of the final state. A simulation based on Geant4 low energy processes for photons and electrons is compared with experimental data in Fig.…”

Geant4 is a toolkit for simulating the passage of particles through matter. It includes a complete range of functionality including tracking, geometry, physics models and hits. The physics processes offered cover a comprehensive range, including electromagnetic, hadronic and optical processes, a large set of long-lived particles, materials and elements, over a wide energy range starting, in some cases, from View the MathML source and extending in others to the TeV energy range. It has been designed and constructed to expose the physics models utilised, to handle complex geometries, and to enable its easy adaptation for optimal use in different sets of applications. The toolkit is the result of a worldwide collaboration of physicists and software engineers. It has been created exploiting software engineering and object-oriented technology and implemented in the C++ programming language. It has been used in applications in particle physics, nuclear physics, accelerator design, space engineering and medical physics

Abstract-The Geant4 Simulation Toolkit provides an ample set of complementary and alternative physics models for both electromagnetic and hadronic processes, describing the interaction of particles with matter. We present a short overview of the actual state of the physics models provided by Geant4 and the results of a series of detailed tests for the quantitative validation of the electromagnetic processes. The Geant4-based test results are compared to protocol references commonly adopted in the medical physics domain (NIST and ICRU).

Abstract-Various issues related to the complexity of appraising the capabilities of physics models implemented in Monte Carlo simulation codes and the evolution of the functional quality the associated software are considered, such as the dependence on the experimental environment where the software operates and its sensitivity to detector characteristics. The concept of software validity as relative to the environment is illustrated by means of a real-life experimental test case. Methods and techniques to mitigate the risk of deteriorating the quality of the software are critically discussed: they concern various disciplines of the software development process. Quantitative validation of physics models is advocated as a method to appraise their capabilities objectively and to monitor the evolution of their associated software behavior.
