The slices are created using class '''G4PVReplica'''. The energy and dose are scored using classes '''G4UserSteppingAction''' and '''G4UserRunAction'''. Alternatively, the energy and dose are scored using class '''G4ScoringManager''' by defining two scoring meshes in logitudinal and lateral direction of the beam. More information about scoring meshes can be found [https://geant4.web.cern.ch/geant4/UserDocumentation/UsersGuides/ForApplicationDeveloper/html/ch04s08.html here]. Protons are generated using '''G4ParticleGun''' class. There is an option to chose among several '''EM''' and '''QGSP_BIC_EMY''' physics lists. | The slices are created using class '''G4PVReplica'''.
