"Simulation of DNA damage using Geant4-DNA: an overview of the "molecul" by Konstantinos P. Chatzipapas, Ngoc Hoang Tran et al.
Purpose: The scientific community shows great interest in the study of DNA damage induction, DNA damage repair, and the biological effects on cells and cellular systems after exposure to ionizing radiation. Several in silico methods have been proposed so far to study these mechanisms using Monte Carlo simulations. This study outlines a Geant4-DNA example application, named “molecularDNA”, publicly released in the 11.1 version of Geant4 (December 2022). Methods: It was developed for novice Geant4 users and requires only a basic understanding of scripting languages to get started. The exampl...
