Abstract
A C++ code, named DosiVox and based on the Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation toolkit, was developed in order to provide a reliable and flexible tool for modeling a large variety of situations of interest in paleodosimetric dating techniques, and for simulating interactions of usual particles (a, b and g) through complex geometries. DosiVox allows the user to define a three dimensional grid, in the simulation space whose voxel dimensions, materials and radioactive contents (U, Th, K) are set by a user-friendly graphical interface. No skills in C++ programming are required. Some of the possibilities offered by DosiVox are presented here through a series of examples.
