Tutorial on Geant4 for users interested to improve their understanding and usage of Geant4. Appropriate for creating intermediate and advanced applications in any domain, with emphasis on topics most relevant to experiments in High Energy or Nuclear Physics. This is a tutorial course based on Geant4 version 10.6.

Lectures will cover the most advanced features of Geant4 starting from the basic building blocks covered in the beginners course, interspersed with discussion sessions.

The course is expected to be of interest to users with intermediate experience in Geant4 and familiarity with the toolkit. Participants are expected to have a reasonable knowledge of C++.

Due to the measures for COVID-19, the course will take place using  Videoconferencing. 

The course is being held using Zoom - a link to join has been sent to participants.  Please contact the organisers if you have registered, paid and not not received this link.

The course is now full.

Users with CERN affiliation (experiment or other) can register for future courses via the Learning Hub.
