GRAS

The Geant4 Radiation Analysis for Space (GRAS) tool is a Geant4-based application that deals with common analyses types in 3D geometry models. More information and the download of the GRAS package are found on the GRAS web page (login required). In order to use GRAS on the cluster the following steps need to be done:

1. download the GRAS-package version 3.3 (this version is working on the cluster, other versions may or may not work)
2. unpack the tar-file in your home-directory on the cluster (or another location of your choice, the following steps assume you use $HOME)
3. change into the directory gras-03-03
4. load the modules Geant/9.6 and CMake
5. execute the following commands:

mkdir build
cd build

If you are using GRAS in any way for you work, please reference the official GRAS paper like so:
