Motivation• Elastic Coulomb scattering is an important
process for particle transport• Multiple scattering may fail at low dense
media – beam transport in vacuum– space applications
• Provide an alternative to multiple scattering based as much as possible on theory
• In view of further development of combined scattering process per particle type

New classes
• G4CoulombScattering – elastic process– standardSS, standardIG builders
• G4eCoulombScatteringModel – no nuclear recoil– main version, all plots below
• G4CoulombScatteringModel– Recoil nucleus is provided– Need more validation

Physics• Wentzel model with Bethe second order corrections
to screening radius– J.M. Fernandez-Varea, R. Mayol, J. Baro, F. Salvat, NIM
B73 (1993) 447– H.A. Bethe, Phys. Rev. 78 (1953) 1256
• Nuclear size corrections– A.V. Butkevich, R.P. Kokoulin, G.V. Matushko, S.P.
Mikheyev, NIM A488 (2002) 282• Scattering off electrons
– Z2 -> Z(Z + 1)– no conventional model
• Nuclear recoil– is not in any existing model

Validation
• Two new automatic tests:– Test37 – Sandia data for e- 0.5 MeV
• Sandia report
– Test41 – MuScat data for μ+ 172 GeV/c• D.Attwood et al., NIM B251 (2006) 41
• More tests will follow

Test37 results
Standard cut 0.7 mm
Integral dose is an important value for LHC – 3 % accuracy

Test37 for multi-layer configurations
• EMV shows significant deviation from the data• Single scattering model overestimates dose deposition in the
last layer and provide slightly longer distribution in dense media

Problems and plans
• Scattering off electrons
• Nuclear recoil
• We need more tests
• We need to introduce cut in range for nuclear recoil– May be used in other G4 models
• Combine models per particle type
