Dear Colleagues,

SLAC and LLNL Geant4 teams are happy to announce that we conduct a 
Geant4 tutorial course at Oak Ridge National Laboratory / Radiation 
Safety Information Computational Center (RSICC), Oak Ridge, TN, USA on 
March 07-11, 2011. It will be a four day tutorial preceded by a one day 
tutorial of SWORD (a wrapper of Geant4 and MCNPX to use both of them 
with common I/O files). This tutorial is co-sponsored by RSICC and NEA. 
This tutorial course is to be designed for the use of Geant4 version 9.4 
in all aspects of its application fields with special emphasis on 
nuclear physics experiments and shielding studies.

Lectures will cover all features of Geant4 from basic installation 
through advanced topics and will be interspersed with hands-on examples 
that build a progressively more complex application extensible to real 
use. The course should be of interest both to complete novices and to 
those who already have some basic familiarity with Geant4. Participants 
are expected to have a reasonable knowledge of C++ and some basic UNIX 
shell commands.

The capacity of this course is strictly limited to 60. Previous courses 
have filled up quickly, so we encourage you to register as soon as 
possible at:
  http://rsicc.ornl.gov/rsiccnew/geant4-sword-workshop/geant4-sword.htm
Detailed agenda will be posted to this web page as soon as it becomes 
available.

Please pass this message on right away to any colleagues you think might 
be interested.

Kind Regards,
Makoto Asai
On behalf of SLAC and LLNL Geant4 teams
