Geant4 Tutorial @ Massachusetts Institute of Technology
November 6th-9th, 2017

Dear Colleagues,

The SLAC Geant4 team will conduct a four day tutorial
course based on Geant4 10.3-patch02 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, newly
arising material science and other industrial applications.

The lectures will cover all aspects of the toolkit of
Geant4 version 10.3 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 in addition to basic
radiation physics.

The tutorial starts in the morning of November 6th
(Monday) and runs through the afternoon of November 9th
(Thursday).

The capacity is 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
