Description
In the framework of the ESA funded project "Energetic Electron Shielding, Charging and Radiation Effects (ELSHIELD)", a series of activities were performed to improve exiting Geant4 capabilities and develop new tools and interfaces, all of them related to the estimation of the impact of energetic electrons on space systems.
The resulting improvements from these Geant4 activities will be presented, including new EM models, already available at latest Geant4 releases, and their comparison with experimental data, new interface commands for simulation biasing, scoring capabilities in complex meshed geometries and automated shielding analysis tools based on the combination of Geant4 and Genetic Algorithm techniques.
