Indeed one of our goals is to bring together scientists from \u00a0the Geant4 community with those working on space missions to evaluate the usefulness of this tool and its validity for X-ray based-mission. An introductory course to Geant4 is foreseen just after the end of the workshop to help for this interaction.\u00a0Furthermore, in the context of the upcoming ATHENA mission, attention will be dedicated to the solar wind charge exchange process which is responsible for one of the more elusive background components that future X-ray missions will have to deal with.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The following is a list of topics that will be adressed:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">1) Plasma physics (particle environment)<br \/>\n2) Solar wind charge exchange<br \/>\n3) Background effects on science data from high energy missions to microwaves<br \/>\n4) Radiation Damage (from high energy missions to microwaves to planetology probes,&#8230;)<br \/>\n5) Geant4 (low energy electromagnetic physics)<br \/>\n6) Geant4-based tool for instrument modelling<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We will bring together scientists from different communities (from high energies to microwaves) who have approached these topics from different angles with the goal of reaching a clearer and deeper understanding of the physical processes involved in the production of instrumental background and radiation damage, and of the instrument modelling by Geant4 which we hope will be useful in designing more effective X-ray experiments in future space missions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>No registration fee is requested to attend this workshop.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We have planned to have a 2-days full meeting workshop<br \/>\nstart: Monday afternoon<br \/>\nend: Wednesday morning<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/ahead.iaps.inaf.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/workshop-menu.pdf\"><span id=\"result_box\" class=\"short_text\" lang=\"en\">Lunch and C<span class=\"\">ocktail menu<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The workshop will be held in Rome, at Institute for Space Astrophysics and Planetology,<br \/>\nin the Tor Vergata Research Area (CNR).
