Abstract

People who study and research nuclear radiation face problems of safety, limited time for experiments, high-cost equipment, and especially the non-visual in observing interactions of radiation with matter. The application of computer science to build simulation software in nuclear radiation is an optimal solution to overcome the above limitations. However, the amount of software that supports simulating the interaction of radiation with matter is minimal and their features are quite monotonous. Therefore, we have been building a new software named VIRMG4, based on Geant4/Gamos code. The goal of VIRMG4 is to visualize radiation interactions using VRML files, helping to observe the radiation path, and allowing users to freely build desired systems with a variety of source types and geometries. Simultaneously supporting dose calculation for phantom (dose/energy distribution by space/depth). VIRMG4 is currently under development, and future updates will introduce additional features to meet diverse user needs.
