[Gate-users] Does anyone know the penelope package for gate?

[John Apostolakis]

Dear 张辉,

It is Geant4 which has an implementation of Penelope (version 2001) 
physics models for low-energy electron, positron and gamma interactions.

To enable this from GATE would require using a physics list based on 
these models.  Potentially this is already available via user command 
(GATE users or developers can comment).  Otherwise a simple 
change/addition in (GATE) source code could allow to use it.

Best regards,
John Apostolakis (Geant4)
