GEANT4 in Athena








Athena G4 Documentation

A prototype interface to Geant4 from Athena currently called G4Svc has been implemented, and is available for use on a limited basis. Several testbed detector subsystems, including the SCT and the LAr are being implemented to make use of it.

These pages document the use of the G4Svc and the various packages and Algorithms that make use of it.

Note that all these packages make use of StoreGate as the event data store, so any modules that you use must be modified to use StoreGate instead of the standard Gaudi transient event store.

The G4Svc and the associated geometry builders and examples all live inside a container package called G4Sim.


The G4Sim packages are now available from the Atlas CVS repository at CERN. The location is
offline/Simulation/G4Sim
$CVSROOT = :kserver:atlas-sw.cern.ch:/atlascvs

The most recent tag is: G4Sim-00-01-08
