Polarisation |
User Requirements Document |
This document collects the specific requirements concerning Geant4 Polarisation. Please refer to Geant4 User Requirement Document for the general context.
Polarised Physics provides software for the simulation of physics processes involving polarisation.
The software is meant to be part of the Geant4 Toolkit.
The user shall be able to simulate polarisation.
The software will be compatible for usage with the Geant4 Toolkit.
The user will be able to customize services in a suitable way for his/her specific applications.
User communities especially interested in polarization involve astrophysics, medical physics and SLAC E166 experiment.
The software will be subject to the same environment as the Geant4 Toolkit.
This document relies on the assumption that Geant4 Polarisation is managed according to a controlled software process, and that all the stakeholders contribute to the requirements traceability.
The Unified Process is adopted as process framework.
