Introduction

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 53/R-044 - scope and goal of this course - a short introduction to Geant4 - introduction of some important Geant4 concepts such as run, event, track, etc.

Preliminaries

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 53/R-044 - introduction of our work environment (i.e. the virtual machine installation, demystification of Geant4 install and `CMake` configuration, etc.) - recapitulation of some object oriented concept of C++ crucial for the course (such as interface and their usage)

Detector Description

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 53/R-044 - introduction of the `G4VUserDetectorConstruction` interface - introduction to the Geant4 geometry description - introduction to the Geant4 material description

Implementation of the Detector-Construction of our application

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 53/R-044 - we will develop the `main` of our application then we start to implement the mandatory components, first the DetectorConstruction, i.e. the detector geometry and material description

Complete the Detector-Construction implementation

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 32/S-C22

Primary particle generation

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 53/R-044 - a (very basic) look behind multi-threaded Geant4 - introduction of the `G4VUserPrimaryGeneratorAction` and usage - introduction of `G4VUserActionInitialization` interface - implementation of the primary generator of our application

Complete the primary generator implementation

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 53/R-044

Introduction to (some of) the further Geant4 user actions

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 53/R-044 - recapitulation of the related Geant4 concepts (`run`, `event`, `step`) - introduction of the Stepping-, Event- and Run-Actions and the related Geant4 interfaces (`G4UserRunAction`, `G4UserEventAction`, `G4UserSteppingAction`) - implement the remaining user actions of our application

Add some flexibility to our application through UI commands

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 53/R-044 - introduction to Geant4 UI commands - implement some UI commands to allow e.g. change of the target material, thickness

Recapitulation

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 53/R-044 - enjoy using the application that we developed together, compare the results with experimental data - summary of the course and outlook
