The Geant4 toolkit is the leading software for the simulation of particle transport through matter, widely used in nuclear physics, high-energy physics, and medical physics. However, the initial learning curve for new developers can be…
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are exceptionally bright electromagnetic events occurring daily on the sky. The prompt emission is dominated by X-/$\gamma$-rays. Since their discovery over 50 years ago, GRBs are primarily studied through spectral…
Recent developments and validation tests related to the simulation of X-ray fluorescence and PIXE with Geant4 are reviewed. They concern new models for PIXE, which has enabled the first Geant4-based simulation of PIXE in a concrete…
