ParticleCounter is an application for Monte Carlo simulation of radiation detectors based on the Geant4 toolkit.
The ParticleCounter application (version 5.1) has been tested on Geant4 version 10.1 (patch-03) using Ubuntu 18.04 or later.

ParticleCounter is currently focused on simulations with 3He-filled neutron counters. Simulation of other kinds of radiation detectors, such as HPGe or silicon, is also possible by extracting track information from the Monte Carlo simulation.

Description
Description
- Realistic implementation of different commercial detectors.
- Internal definition of different materials.
- “User friendly” parametric implementation of geometries, detectors and materials.
- User access to track information from the Monte Carlo transport.
- Particle source based on the G4GeneralParticleSource (GPS) provided by the Geant4 toolkit.
- Scoring based on the internally defined scorers of ParticleCounter or the command-based scoring functionality provided by the Geant4 toolkit.
- Previous versions of the code have been described in: PoS(XLASNPA)068, 2013 & JINST 12 (2017) P04006.
