  1. Geant4 General Paper 23 September 2013 Dennis Wright

  2. Agenda • Purpose of paper • Review of outline • based on MC2013 general paper • Review of section authors • Content of Extensions and Validation sections • discussion • Identify supporting papers • discussion of existing references and those to be written • Section content and planning • discussion 2

  3. Purpose of Paper • Advances in Geant4 since last general paper in 2006 • cover major advances • refer as much as possible to published papers • not meant to be a detailed progress report • publish collateral papers before-hand • Journal • NIM, IEEE? • alternatives 3

  4. Paper Outline (1) • Introduction (The Evolution of Geant4?) • issues which drive change in Geant4 • how Geant4 design adapts to change • use cases and applications • Multi-threading • the transition to multi-threading and the reasons for it • implementation • results • Geant4 Kernel Functionalities • tracking and scoring • detector modeling (geometry, materials, etc.) • visualization 4

  5. Paper Outline (2) • Recent Developments in Physics Modeling • electromagnetic • hadronic • extensions • validation • Outlook for the Next Decade • a brief summary of Geant4 progress • where Geant4 is going 5

  6. Section Authors • Paper committee • Andrea Dotti • Peter Gumplinger • Marc Verderi • Dennis Wright • Section authors (so far) • II: Multi-threading – Makoto, Andrea, John Ap., Gene, Gabriele • III A: Tracking and scoring - Takashi Sasaki and Tsukasa Aso • III B: Detector modeling – Gabriele Cosmo • III C: Visualization - Joseph Perl • IV A: EM physics – Vladimir Ivantchenko and Sebastien Incerti • IV B: Hadronic physics – Alberto Ribon and Dennis Wright 6

  7. Extensions Section • Content • DNA, solid state physics, medical applications, space applications, …. • interfaces to other codes • a lot to cover, can’t do it all • Authors • depends on what we decide above 7

  8. Validation Section • Content • testing, physics validation tools • LHC calorimetry • again, a lot to cover • Authors • Likely: Gunter Folger, Julia Yarba, Hans Wenzel, Alberto Ribon, Andrea Dotti 8
