Geant4 Simulation For Lhc Radiation Monitoring, M Glaser, S Guatelli, B Mascialino, M Moll, M G. Pia, F Ravotti
Geant4 Simulation For Lhc Radiation Monitoring, M Glaser, S Guatelli, B Mascialino, M Moll, M G. Pia, F Ravotti
Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A
Monitoring radiation background is a crucial task for the operation of LHC experiments. A project is in progress at CERN for the optimisation of the radiation monitors for LHC experiments. A simulation system based on Geant4, designed to assist the engineering optimisation of LHC radiation monitor detectors, is presented. Various detector packaging configurations are studied through their Geant4-based simulation, and their behaviour is compared.

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 …

Geant4 Antropomorphic Phantoms, Susanna Guatelli, Barbara Mascialino, Maria Grazia Pia, Witold Pokorski
Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A
A novel architectural approach to the design of human phantom software models is presented. A detailed design has been developed to enable the adoption of this approach in Geant4-based simulation applications. A few preliminary implementations and application demonstrations are described.
Geant4 Simulation In A Distributed Computing Environment, Susanna Guatelli, Alfonso Mantero, Patricia Mendez Lorenzo, Jakub Moscicki, Maria Grazia Pia
Geant4 Simulation In A Distributed Computing Environment, Susanna Guatelli, Alfonso Mantero, Patricia Mendez Lorenzo, Jakub Moscicki, Maria Grazia Pia
Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A
A general system to perform a Geant4-based simulation in a distributed computing environment is presented. The architecture developed makes the system transparent to sequential or parallel execution and to the environment where the simulation is run: a single machine, a local cluster or a geographically distributed grid.
