摘要
The accuracy of the Geant4 component for the simulation of atomic relaxation has been evaluated against the experimental measurements of the NIST Standard Reference Data. The validation study concerns X-ray and Auger transition energies. The comparison of the simulated and experimental data with rigorous statistical methods demonstrates the excellent accuracy of the simulation of atomic de-excitation in Geant4.
