Description
Geant4 is a toolkit for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter. Its areas of application include high energy, nuclear and accelerator physics, as well as studies in medical and space science. We introduce the project on Geant4 R&D for High Energy Physics and Medical Physics since a few accelerators are supposed to build for high energy physics and medical physics near future in Korea.
The goal is to to port on supercomputing for High Energy Physics and Medical Physics and to profile large-scale test and evaluation in order to improve Geant4 multi-processing. For Geant4 development, we work on supercomputing porting, Geant4 parallel processing and Geant4 optimizatin R&D. For Geant4 application for High Energy Physcis, we study on primary beam and secondary beam in accelerator. We also work on detector R&D. For Geant4 application for Medical Physics, we study proton accelerator for diagonosis and treatment. We also introduce the community building for Geant4 user group.
