Recent developments in GEANT4

John Allison, +102 more
TL;DR: Geant4 as discussed by the authors is a software toolkit for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter, which is used by a large number of experiments and projects in a variety of application domains, including high energy physics, astrophysics and space science, medical physics and radiation protection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Missing transverse energy performance of the CMS detector

S. Chatrchyan, +2184 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of comprehensive studies of missing transverse energy as measured by the CMS detector are presented, and the results cover the measurements of the scale and resolution for missing transversal energy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relative Biological Effectiveness Variation Along Monoenergetic and Modulated Bragg Peaks of a 62-MeV Therapeutic Proton Beam: A Preclinical Assessment

TL;DR: This work presents a comparative investigation of cell killing RBE variations along monoenergetic and modulated proton beams using human normal and radioresistant cells with the aim to investigate the RBE dependence on LET and intrinsic radiosensitvity and highlights the limitation of adoption of a constant RBE for proton therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent Improvements in Geant4 Electromagnetic Physics Models and Interfaces

TL;DR: The Geant4 toolkit as mentioned in this paper is a toolkit for the analysis of the electromagnetic (EM) physics of the standard and low-energy models, including relativistic models for bremsstrahlung and e+e-pair production, models of multiple and single scattering, hadron/ion ionization, microdosimetry for very low energies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for neutral minimal supersymmetric standard model Higgs bosons decaying to tau pairs in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV.

S. Chatrchyan, +2233 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a search for neutral MSSM Higgs bosons in pp collisions at the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV is presented based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 inverse picobarns recorded by the CMS experiment.
