TL;DR: GeGeant4 as mentioned in this paper is a software toolkit for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter, it is used by a large number of experiments and projects in a variety of application domains, including high energy physics, astrophysics and space science, medical physics and radiation protection.

TL;DR: The results show that microdosimetric measurements in liquid water are necessary to assess quantitatively the validity of the software implementation for the liquid water phase, and represent a first step in the extension of the GEANT4 Monte Carlo toolkit to the simulation of biological effects of ionizing radiation.

TL;DR: An overview of the whole on-going Geant4-DNA project is presented, including its most recent developments that are available in the Geant 4 toolkit since December 2009, as well as an illustration example simulating the direct irradiation of a biological chromatin fiber.

TL;DR: The Geant4-DNA project as mentioned in this paper proposes to develop an open-source simulation software based and fully included in the general-purpose geant4 Monte Carlo simulation toolkit, which is used to simulate biological damages induced by ionising radiation at the cellular and sub-cellular scale.

TL;DR: A brief description of the SLAC and KEK B Factories as well as their detectors, BaBar and Belle, and data taking related issues can be found in Part A of this book as mentioned in this paper.
