Total cross section, Mean free path, dE/dX table
- Geant3
S(E,Z,Ecut): parameterisation from L.Urban (~60 parameters).
dE/dX (E,Z,Tcut): - idem -
Energy range: from ~1 GeV to 10 TeV
- Geant4
S(E,Z,Ecut): starting from the (latest) theoretical
differential cross section,
the total cross section are computed by numerical integration.
dE/dX (E,Z,Tcut): - idem -
Energy range: from ~1 GeV to 1000 PeV
Final state
- Geant3
Gamma energy sampled from Petrukhin-Shestakov cross section.
Gamma angle sampled from an energy-angle distribution derived from Tsai
formula.
- Geant4
Photon energy sampled according the theoretical differential cross section.
Photon and muon angles are sampled from an approximate (similar to Tsai) energy-angle
distribution.
