This discussion focuses on beginners seeking guidance on using Geant4, a toolkit for simulating the passage of particles through matter. Participants recommend utilizing the past tutorials available at SLAC's Geant4 Past Events for hands-on examples. They emphasize the importance of examining the example codes included with Geant4, suggesting that beginners modify existing examples to suit their specific needs rather than starting from scratch. The conversation also highlights a particular interest in hadronic examples.
PREREQUISITESBeginner physicists, simulation developers, and researchers interested in particle interactions and Geant4 applications will benefit from this discussion.
Thank you so much for your reply. It has been some time from the post and I had no choice but trying to figure it out myself. Then I did the exactly what you said. I still have some question marks but also still working on it.rare earth said:I'd have a look at some of the past tutorials posted here: http://www-public.slac.stanford.edu/geant4/PastEvents.asp
There are some hands-on examples which you can work through on your own. Then I'd suggest looking through the example codes that come with Geant4 if there is one that closely matches your needs. Then you can modify it to what you really want. I'd recommend this approach instead of trying to build your program completely from scratch.
