Geant4 Simulation of Muon Absorption in Concrete Layers
Muography requires a detailed understanding of the absorption of muons in the material situated between the muon source and the detector. A large-statistics (>3 billion event) Geant4 simulation was run to simulate the absorption of muons in different ...

Hands on Luna400: Geant4 simulations [PDF]
For the evaluation of measurements performed at the Laboratory for Underground Nuclear Astrophysics (LUNA), knowledge of the response of the detectors and a detailed understanding of the background contributions to the measured spectra are essential. Monte Carlo simulations of the radiation transport on the basis of Geant4 are important tools used in ...

Geant4 simulation of the moderating neutrons spectrum
In this paper we deal with the problem of predicting a steady-state neutron spectrum in media of arbitrary composition and geometry. The analytical calculations of such spectrum are often too complex, if at all possible. We describe a method of Geant4-based Monte Carlo calculation of the steady-state neutron spectrum in a medium containing a fixed ...
