TrueBq01 is a Geant4 simulation for cryogenic decay-energy spectrometery. It has been compiled using Geant4.10.6 on Windows using Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2019
TrueBq01 is based on the the rdecay02 example included with Geant4 distribtuions.
- Install Geant4
- Download source code folder (TrueBq01)
- Follow Geant4 user code compilation instructions
3.1 I used Cmake version 3.19.2
3.2 If using Visual studio, use configuration "Release" or "RelWithDebInfo" (not "Debug", which is default)
From build directory (eg. TrueBq01-build)-
For batch file: TrueBq01-build> \Release\TrueBq01.exe batch.mac
For interactive mode: (w/ graphics): TrueBq01-build> \Release\TrueBq01.exe
- Rectangular solid absorber (gold as default material) sitting on a
- Rectangualr solid chip (silicon as default)
Dimensions of both solids can be set by user (e.g. in batch.mac)
Source is selected by the user; can be radionuclide or particle of a given energy.
Source distribution within absorber can be set in the macro.
BiasedRDPhysics with Radioactivation Physics list selectable in source code
- typically G4EmStandardPhysics_option4
- for single scattering, use: G4EmStandardPhysicsSS
Decay Energy Spectrum of total energy deposited in the absorber is tallied in a histogram. Other histograms can be activate.
Options in macro to add Gaussian noise and tailing
Decay Energy Spectrum of total energy deposited in the absorber is saved inn custom .out file.
