摘要
Geant4-DNA is an extension of the general purpose Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation toolkit. It can simulate particle-matter physical interactions down to very low energies in liquid water. The simulation in that energy scale needs enormous computing time since it simulates all physical interactions following a discrete approach. This work presents the implementation of the physics processes/models of the Geant4-DNA extension in GPU architecture. We observed impressive performance gain with the same physics accuracy as existing methods.
