• EGS4PICT Windows 32 bit version

• Low Energy Photon Treatments
• Photon Cross Section Data
• Revision of the Sternheimer Density Effect Coefficients

Add on of EGS4 System

• MARS -- Multiple-Array System using Combinatorial Geometry
• PRESTA-CG -- Combinatrial Geometry with PRESTA developped by T. Torii and T. Sugita. PRESTA-CG is only for EGS4 because PRESTA is an improvement for EGS4. CG is usable in EGS5.

Applications of EGS

• Gamma-ray Buildup Factors
• Electromagnetic Calorimeter Study
• Gas bremsstrahlung Study
• Dosimetry and Health Physics Study
• Other Fields
• Outside KEK
• Radiation education using EGS
• H. Hirayama and Y. Namito received 1999 AESJ (Atomic Energy Society of Japan) 'Preeminent Monograph Award' together with K. Shin at Kyoto University.
