Theory: Before writing the program let’s have a look at the interference of waves. What is Interference of Waves? In physics, interference is a phenomenon in which two waves superimpose to form a resultant wave of greater, lower, or the same amplitude. What is the Principle of Superposition of Waves? The principle of superposition of […]

Theory: Before writing the program let’s have a look at the formation of Beats. When two waves having equal amplitude but slightly different frequencies, are traveling in the same direction and arrive at a particular point simultaneously, then alternate maxima and minima are formed. This phenomenon is called the formation of beats. Let’s have two

Theory: Before directly going to the program, let’s have an overview of the Fourier terms of the triangular wave. The Fourier series of the triangular waves is given by From the above Fourier series, the partial sum of the first term is The partial sum of the first two terms is The partial sum of
Discovery of Atoms Nuclear Physics is a very new and fascinating branch of Physics, which deals with the atomic nucleus. The atomic nucleus is the small, dense region consisting of protons and neutrons situated in the center of an atom. The branch of Physics, which deals with the atom, is called Atomic Physics. The discovery

Introduction GEANT4 (for GEometry ANd Tracking) is a platform for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter using Monte Carlo methods [1]. It is a software toolkit developed by the international GEANT4 collaboration with the use of object-oriented programming in C++. This software is used by several research projects around the world. Library

In the context of a Geant4 simulation, source code files contain the actual C++ code that defines the behavior and structure of your simulation. These files are where you implement the various components of your simulation, such as geometry, physics processes, primary particle generation, and event handling. Here are some common types of source code

Header files in a GEANT4 simulation, typically denoted with the extension .hh or .h, play a crucial role in organizing and structuring the C++ code for your simulation. They contain declarations for classes, functions, and variables that are defined in the corresponding source code files (.cc or .cpp). Header files help with code modularization, encapsulation,

Let’s start the learning of Geant4 Simulation code with a very basic problem “How to make a solid box in Geant4?” In Geant4, which is a toolkit for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter, creating a solid box involves defining a geometric shape using the appropriate classes provided by the toolkit. Geant4

In Geant4, you can create a colored solid box by defining a logical volume with specific visualization attributes. Let’s color the solid box that we already made in our earlier post named How to create a solid box in Geant4?. Also, let’s add the colorful axis. The G4VisAttributes class is used to set visual attributes
