Discussion on step-parameter tuning in Geant4

Monday 18 Sept 2023, 17:30 → 19:35 Europe/Zurich

virtual

Sandro Christian Wenzel (CERN), Krzysztof Genser (Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (US)), John Derek Chapman (University of Cambridge (GB))

Exchange on approaches and ideas for reducing the step count of Geant4 simulations, while maintaining reasonable physics output.

What are things that experiments have tried? What are novel ideas?
