Geant4 RApid Pair Production Application (GRAPPA) v1.0.0

Abstract

GRAPPA is a Geant4 application that simulates the interaction of an incoming particle beam (typically electron or photons) with an High-Z material. Particles are generated at a certain energy and interact with a solid target. The product of this interaction is detected and saved on file. The application implements a basic target that is just a simple box, and it accepts complex target descriptions via GDML files. The user has the freedom to set detectors to capture the desired particles. This application enables studying processes such as antiparticle production, muon generation, and atomic decay.
