9 | --------------- |
---|
10 | |
---|
11 | N01 - Simple example to demonstrate how the GEANT4 basic framework works. |
---|
12 | No physics involved, only tracking on a simple geometry. |
---|
13 | N02 - Simulation of a simplified fixed target experiment. |
---|
14 | Includes a simple parameterised geometry. Defines a transverse |
---|
15 | uniform magnetic field. Include standard EM physics for gammas, |
---|
16 | charged leptons and charged hadrons. Includes visualization and |
---|
17 | detector response. |
---|
18 | N03 - Simulation of a simple sample Calorimeter setup. |
---|
19 | Shows the usage of 'replicated' volumes in the geometry. Defines |
---|
20 | user commands for primaries generation (isotropic random distribution). |
---|
21 | Defines a transverse uniform magnetic field. Include detector |
---|
22 | response and statistics on relevant quantities. Include a tutorial |
---|
23 | for visualization, exercising different visualization drivers. |
---|
24 | N04 - Defines a simplified collider detector setup. |
---|
25 | Demonstrates interfacing to the PYTHIA primary generator. Includes |
---|
26 | the definition of a 'readout' geometry. Defines all ordinary physics |
---|
27 | processes for leptons and hadrons. Exercises event filtering using |
---|
28 | the stacking mechanism. Includes visualization. |
---|
29 | N05 - Implements a setup for fast-parameterisation. |
---|
30 | Provides a simple shower parameterisation for e+/e-/gamma in a |
---|
31 | EM calorimeter, and a pi+/pi- parameterisation using ghost volumes. |
---|
32 | Implements parameterised detector response. |
---|
33 | N06 - Simulation of optical photons generation and transport. |
---|
34 | Defines optical surfaces and exercises optical physics processes |
---|
35 | (Cerenkov, Scintillation, Absorption, Rayleigh, ...). Uses stacking |
---|
36 | mechanism to count the secondary particles generated. |
---|
37 | N07 - Implements three simplified sandwitch calorimeters. |
---|
38 | Shows how to modify part of the geometry setup at run-time. Includes |
---|
39 | detector description parameterisation by materials. Demonstrates |
---|
40 | sharing of a sensitive detector definition for different sub-detectors. |
---|
41 | Defines different geometrical regions with different production |
---|
42 | thresholds. Shows customization of the G4Run. |
