A research and development (R&D) project related to the extension of the Geant4 toolkit has been recently launched to address fundamental methods in radiation transport simulation. The project focuses on simulation at different scales in the same experimental environment; this problem requires new methods across the current boundaries of condensed-random-walk and discrete transport schemes. The new developments have been motivated by experimental requirements in various domains, including nanodosimetry, astronomy and detector developments for high energy physics applications.

A R&D project has been launched in 2009 to address fundamental methods in radiation transport simulation and revisit Geant4 kernel design to cope with new experimental requirements. The project focuses on simulation at different scales in the same ex
perimental environment: this set of problems requires new methods across the current boundaries of condensed-random-walk and discrete transport schemes. An exploration is also foreseen about exploiting and extending already existing Geant4 features to apply Monte Carlo and deterministic transport methods in the same simulation environment. An overview of this new R&D associated with Geant4 is presented, together with the first developments in progress.

Recently, a 4th-order asymptotic preserving multiderivative implicit-explicit (IMEX) scheme was developed (Schutz and Seal 2020, arXiv:2001.08268). This scheme is based on a 4th-order Hermite interpolation in time, and uses an approach based on opera
tor splitting that converges to the underlying quadrature if iterated sufficiently. Hermite schemes have been used in astrophysics for decades, particularly for N-body calculations, but not in a form suitable for solving stiff equations. In this work, we extend the scheme presented in Schutz and Seal 2020 to higher orders. Such high-order schemes offer advantages when one aims to find high-precision solutions to systems of differential equations containing stiff terms, which occur throughout the physical sciences. We begin by deriving Hermite schemes of arbitrary order and discussing the stability of these formulas. Afterwards, we demonstrate how the method of Schutz and Seal 2020 generalises in a straightforward manner to any of these schemes, and prove convergence properties of the resulting IMEX schemes. We then present results for methods ranging from 6th to 12th order and explore a selection of test problems, including both linear and nonlinear ordinary differential equations and Burgers equation. To our knowledge this is also the first time that Hermite time-stepping methods have been applied to partial differential equations. We then discuss some benefits of these schemes, such as their potential for parallelism and low memory usage, as well as limitations and potential drawbacks.
We present {gamma} spectroscopy validation measurements for the Geant4 radioactive decay simulation for a selected range of isotopes using a simple experimental setup. Using these results we point out problems in the decay simulation and where they may originate from.
The production, application, and/or measurement of polarised X-/gamma rays are key to the fields of synchrotron science and X-/gamma-ray astronomy. The design, development and optimisation of experimental equipment utilised in these fields typically
relies on the use of Monte Carlo radiation transport modelling toolkits such as Geant4. In this work the Geant4 G4LowEPPhysics electromagnetic physics constructor has been reconfigured to offer a best set of electromagnetic physics models for studies exploring the transport of low energy polarised X-/gamma rays. An overview of the physics models implemented in G4LowEPPhysics, and its experimental validation against Compton X-ray polarimetry measurements of the BL38B1 beamline at the SPring-8 synchrotron (Sayo, Japan) is reported. G4LowEPPhysics is shown to be able to reproduce the experimental results obtained at the BL38B1 beamline (SPring-8) to within a level of accuracy on the same order as Geant4s X-/gamma ray interaction cross-sectional data uncertainty (approximately $pm$ 5 %).
