What is Geant4?
Geant4 is a toolkit for the modelling of the passage of particles through matter.
It is a successor of the Geant3 simulation package, that has been world-standard
toolkit for the HEP detector simulation since early 1980's and throughout modern days.
Geant4 is one of the first successful attempts to re-design a major package of HEP
software for the next generation of experiments using an Object-Oriented environment.
The toolkit is being designed, developed and maintained by an international collaboration
formed by individuals from a number of cooperating institutes, HEP experiments, and
universities. Its headquarter is located at CERN. You can visit Geant4
