Scientific paper

We have developed a Monte Carlo code based on Geant4 to simulate the interaction of cosmic rays (E<100GeV) with the Earth's atmosphere. The code allows to compute the flux of secondaries at user-defined altitudes. Possible applications include e.g. neutron albedo estimations, solar particle flux studies, and cosmogenic nuclide production. The paper describes the code and presents the results of first simulations.
