Simulate the passage of particles through matter

Geant4 is a toolkit for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter. Its areas of application include high energy, nuclear and accelerator physics, as well as studies in medical and space science. The three main reference papers for Geant4 are published in Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research A 506 2003 250-303, IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science 53 No. 1 2006 270-278 and Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research A 835 2016 186-225.
