Geant4 Tutorial @ Massachusetts Institute of Technology
June 20th-23rd, 2016

Dear Colleagues,

The SLAC Geant4 team will conduct a four day hands-on
course based on the newly released Geant4 version 10.2
hosted by Laboratory for Nuclear Security and Policy,
Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It will cover all
the application domains including high energy and nuclear
physics, astrophysics and space engineering, medical
applications and newly arising material science.

The lectures will cover all aspects of the toolkit of
Geant4 version 10.2 from basic installation through
advanced topics including multithreading and variance
reduction options, and will be interspersed with
hands-on sessions 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 Linux OS.

The tutorial starts in the morning of June 20th (Monday)
and runs through the afternoon of June 23rd (Thursday).

The capacity is strictly limited to 50 on a first-
come-first-served basis. We will commence registration
as soon as the registration web page is ready, with
additional announcement through this mailing list.
The registration form and further details will also be
linked at this URL:

Please forward this announcement to your colleagues
who might have interest.

Kind regards,
Makoto Asai
On behalf of the SLAC Geant4 team and local organizers
