Description
A workshop for Geant4 Collaboration members. User participation is invited for the first 4 days, 13th-16th September. This will include user presentations, Geant4 status reports, discussions, a technical forum meeting, tutorials and Sunday excursion. Also, the venue is available for special interest group meetings on the day immediately before the workshop - contact workshop support for further information.
Members of the public are invited to attend the first day of user presentations, 13th September, as day delegates, but are asked to register in advance. This is expected to be of interest to local astronomy and scientific societies.

BESIII Detector Simulation with Geant4The BESIII is a new detector which will take data in 2008 on the upgraded electron-poisitron collider (BEPCII) at 2-5 GeV. The development of the BESIII MC program based on Geant4 is outlined. The status and proformance of the simulation are reported. Some problems and user requirements are mentioned.Speaker: Dr Huaimin Liu (IHEP, Beijing)
