چکیده

Geant4 native pre-equilibrium and de-excitation models are used for sampling of residual nucleus fragmentation in a number of generators of inelastic hadron/ion interaction with nuclei including QGS, FTF, Binary Cascade, QMD and some others. The pre-compound model is responsible for pre-equlibrium emission of protons, neutrons and light ions. The de-excitation model provides sampling of evaporation of neutrons, protons and light fragments up to magnesium, Fermi break-up, statistical multifragmentation, fission and photon emission. Recently a review of the pre-equilibrium and de-excitation models of Geant4 has been performed and we report a summary of modifications introduced. The results of the validation versus various published data are presented.

Hybridization of Cuckoo Search and Firefly Algorithms to Calculate the Interaction Parameters in Phase Equilibrium Modeling Problems

Liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) problems such as phase stability analysis, phase equilibrium calculations, chemical equilibrium calculations, binary interaction parameter identification of thermodynamic models and other problems of fluid characterization have been the core subject of many recent studies. This study introduces Cuckoo Search (CS), Firefly Algorithms (FA) and its variants as p...

GEANT4 Target Simulations for Low Energy Medical Applications

The GEANT4 code offers an extensive set of hadronic models for various projectiles and energy ranges. These models include theoretical, parameterized and, for low energy neutrons, data driven models. Theoretical or semiempirical models sometimes cannot reproduce experimental data at low energies (<100MeV), especially for low Z elements, and therefore recent GEANT4 developments included a new pa...

INCL Intra-nuclear Cascade and ABLA De-excitation Models in Geant4

We present INCL intra-nuclear cascade and ABLA de-excitation (evaporation/fission) models that can be used to calculate collisions between projectile particles and nuclei at energies from 0.2 to 3 GeV. Supported projectiles are proton, neutron, pions and light ions up to alpha. The optimal target materials range from carbon to uranium. We have extended the INCL model light ion projectile suppor...

Recent improvements on the description of hadronic interactions in Geant4

We present an overview of recent improvements of hadronic models in Geant4 for the physics configurations (Physics Lists) relevant to applications in high energy experiments. During last year the improvements have concentrated on the study of unphysical discontinuities in calorimeter observables in the transition regions between the models used in Physics Lists. The microscopic origin of these ...
