  1. release 5.0 – planned features Gabriele Cosmo, CERN/IT Geant4 Workshop CERN - October 4th, 2002

  2. Geometry & Transportation Enhancements Implement mechanism for dumping solids/volumes Automatic detection of some forbidden or illegal geometry set-ups Features planned for Geant4 5.0

  3. General developments G4Exception Redesign of G4Exception according to severity levels Particles & Tracks Improvements in tracking performance Features planned for Geant4 5.0 - 2

  4. Electromagnetic physics Standard electromagnetic New implementation of process for Synchrotron radiation Re-design and prototype implementation of processes according to ‘model’ approach Requirements gathering for physics processes above 10 TeV Prototype of plotting of cross sections, DE/dx, … Low Energy electromagnetic Fixes and improvements, in response to open problems New physics features Features planned for Geant4 5.0 - 3

  5. Hadronic physics Create and document educated guess physics lists for major use cases Release fully biased MARS-5 rewrite Release of cascade part of HETC rewrite Release if new kinetic model Provide generic scattering term for cascade type models Improve validation suite for the cascade energy range Improve electro-nuclear cross-sections to consider hard-scattering Features planned for Geant4 5.0 - 4

  6. Visualisation & Graphics Representations Implementation of XML-based DTREE Implementation of DCUT (slice picture) in multiple drivers, surface visualization in DCUT Display of attributes by 'picking' trajectory More flexible interface to WIRED, e.g., network control of WIRED by Geant4 Visualization of smoothly curved trajectory Precision control in the DAWNFILE driver Features planned for Geant4 5.0 - 5

  7. Persistency Design review Better modularisation separating functional interface and concrete implementations Extend ability to switch among multiple persistency technologies New example to support LCG persistency and ROOT I/O Support for persistent and transient HepMC Implementation of base class to register user converters Features planned for Geant4 5.0 - 6
