Geant4 Visualization
Geant4 offers versatile visualization tools to study detector geometry, particle trajectories, and hits. These tools support both interactive and batch modes (e.g., vis.mac). With a unified interface, Geant4 integrates various graphics systems such as G4VisExecutive, OpenGL, Qt, HepRApp, DAWN, VTK, and ToolsSG. Advanced examples, including the ICRP145 Human Phantoms and the gMocren tool, highlight its applications in medical research and simulation and as well as radiation protection and shielding studies. These features make Geant4 a robust framework for exploring particle interactions and supporting domain-specific use cases.
