Geant4
Geant4 is a toolkit for simulating how particles pass through matter. It is available through the geant4
package.
Setup hook
The setup hook included in the package applies the environment variables set by the geant4.sh
script, which is typically necessary for compiling make
-based programs that depend on Geant4.
Datasets
All of the Geant4 datasets provided by CERN are available through the geant4.data
attrset.
Setup hook
The hook provided by the packages in geant4.data
will set an appropriate environment variable in the form of G4[...]DATA
. For example, for the G4RadioactiveDecay
dataset, the G4RADIOACTIVEDATA
environment variable is set to the value expected by Geant4.
