Geant4 simulation for the responses to X-rays and charged particles through the eXTP focusing mirrors

Abstract
A geometrical and physical model of Wolter-I type mirrors has been implemented in Geant4 for the design of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry observatory (eXTP). It can simultaneously simulate the mirror responses to X-rays and charged particles. A new geometry class G4Hyperboloid is created and verified, which allows an exact surface profile description of Wolter-I optics. A physics model for the interaction of X-rays and matter is...
