Introduction

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 593/R-010 - Salle 11 - 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: 593/R-010 - Salle 11 - 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: 593/R-010 - Salle 11 - 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 Room: 593/R-010 - Salle 11 We will develop the main of our application. Then we will start to implement its mandatory components: - first the DetectorConstruction, i.e. the detector geometry and material description

Completing the Detector-Construction implementation

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 593/R-010 - Salle 11

Primary Particle Generation Room: 593/R-010 - Salle 11 Topics: - 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: 593/R-010 - Salle 11

Introduction of some more Geant4 user actions

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 593/R-010 - Salle 11 We will revisit the key Geant4 concepts (run, event, step) related to actions Introduce of the Actions and the related Geant4 interfaces - Stepping Action (G4UserSteppingAction), - Event Action (G4UserEventAction), - and RunAction G4UserRunAction, Implement the remaining user actions of our application.

Using UI commands to add flexibility to our application

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 593/R-010 - Salle 11 - introduction to Geant4 UI commands - implementing UI commands to allow us to change of the target material, thickness at run-time

Recap

• Mihaly Novak (CERN)

Room: 593/R-010 - Salle 11 Use the application we developed - Compare the results with experimental data Summary of the course and outlook
