Validation Of The Geant4 Bremsstrahlung Models: First Results, S Chauvie, S Guatelli, B Mascialino, L Pandola, M G. Pia, P Rodrigues, A Trindade Jan 2006

Validation Of The Geant4 Bremsstrahlung Models: First Results, S Chauvie, S Guatelli, B Mascialino, L Pandola, M G. Pia, P Rodrigues, A Trindade

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A

A project is in progress for a systematic, rigorous validation of Geant4 electromagnetic physics. This paper presents the first results concerning the validation of Geant4 bremsstrahlung models against experimental data.


Validation Of Geant4 Electromagnetic And Hadronic Models Against Proton Data, G A. P Cirrone, G Cuttone, F Di Rosa, S Guatelli, B Mascialino, M G. Pia, G Russo Jan 2006

Validation Of Geant4 Electromagnetic And Hadronic Models Against Proton Data, G A. P Cirrone, G Cuttone, F Di Rosa, S Guatelli, B Mascialino, M G. Pia, G Russo

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A

A comprehensive, rigorous validation of Geant4 electromagnetic and hadronic models pertinent to the simulation of the proton Bragg peak in water is presented. Geant4 simulation results are validated against high precision experimental data taken in the CATANA hadrontherapy facility.


Models Of Biological Effects Of Radiation In The Geant4 Toolkit, S Chauvie, Z Francis, S Guatelli, S Incerti, G Montarou, P Nieminen, M G. Pia Jan 2006

Models Of Biological Effects Of Radiation In The Geant4 Toolkit, S Chauvie, Z Francis, S Guatelli, S Incerti, G Montarou, P Nieminen, M G. Pia

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A

A project, named Geant4-DNA, is in progress to extend the Geant4 simulation toolkit to model the effects of radiation with biological systems at cellular and DNA level. The first component implemented in the first development cycle of the project describes the fractional survival of a population of cells irradiated with photons or charged particles. The software system developed provides the user the option to choose among a small set of alternative models for the calculation of mammalian cell survival after irradiation. The flexible design adopted makes the system open to further extension to implement other cell survival models available in …


Gaussian Message Passing On Linear Models: An Update, Hans-Andrea Loeliger, Junli Hu, Sascha Korl, Qinghua Guo, Li Ping Jan 2006

Gaussian Message Passing On Linear Models: An Update, Hans-Andrea Loeliger, Junli Hu, Sascha Korl, Qinghua Guo, Li Ping

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A

This semi-tutorial paper considers message passing algorithms on factor graphs of linear Gaussian models. Freshly polished tables of message computation rules are given and their use is demonstrated for soft-in soft-out equalization.
