;Course Description
: A practical course applying the theoretical description of fundamental particle interactions such as the photoelectric effect, compton scattering and pair production to describe multiple interactions of particles with matter using the montecarlo method. A software package known as [http://geant4.web.cern.ch/geant4/ GEANT from CERN] will be used which is freely available under the UNIX environment. The course assumes that the student has very limited experience with the UNIX environment and no experience with GEANT. Homework problems involve modifying and compiling example programs written in C++. A final project is required in which the student chooses a process to compare the output of GEANT with experimental data. A report is written in a format which would be publishable in a scientific journal. Publishing the report is not required but left as an option for the student.
