At cosine we have developed a set of extensions for the Geant4 toolkit that allows one to trace X-ray optics of arbitrary complexity, as long as the geometrical model of the system can be described by the geometry library available in Geant4. The core component of these extensions consists of a Geant4-compatible implementation of the reflection of X-ray photons on a surface. Additionally, by making use of the available Geant4 functionality, we have created a framework that allows one to introduce a microscopic description of the properties of the surfaces of the optics. Through this framework it becomes possible to model the effects that these microscopic properties have on the scattering of the photons... We make part of our extensions available for free, under an open source licence. With it Geant4 is augmented with a new physical process, implementing the grazing angle scattering of X-ray photons. The only thing you need to do is define the geometry of your system. With the free..
