at IEEE NSS-MIC 2003

A Short Course on the Geant4 Simulation Toolkit, organized by the Geant4 Collaboration, is available as part of the programme of the 2003 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium - Medical Imaging Conference.


Lecture Notes

A CD containing the lecture notes, Geant4 code, libraries and examples will be distributed to all course participants.
Please note that no paper copies of the lecture notes will be distributed: the students are invited to print the files linked to this page, if they wish to have their own paper copy of the lecture notes.
