Description
The final stages of a number of generators of inelastic hadron/ion interactions with nuclei in Geant4 are described by native pre-equilibrium and de-excitation models. The pre-compound model is responsible for pre-equilibrium emission of protons, neutrons and light ions. The de-excitation model provides sampling of evaporation of neutrons, protons and light fragments up to magnesium. Fermi break-up model is invocated for decay of light fragments (Z<9, A<17) whereas statistical multifragmentation and fission are invoked for heavier ones. Photon emission has a chance for all excited fragments. Recently, model improvements in Fermi break-up and photon evaporation as well as changes in the logic of the de- excitation handler have been made. New sets of experimental data have been included in the validation, which are presented.
