Geant4-DNA physical processes and models

The Geant4-DNA physical processes and models (theoretical, semi-empirical) are adapted for track structure simulations in liquid water and DNA material down to the eV scale. They are described on a dedicated web site: http://geant4-dna.org, which includes a full list of publications.
