Beam Delivery Simulation (BDSIM) is a program based on Geant4 that creates 3D radiation transport models of accelerators from a simple optical description in a vastly reduced time frame with great flexibility.

BDSIM provides a library of scalable generic geometry for a variety of applications. Our Python package, Pyg4ometry, allows rapid preparation and conversion of geometries for BDSIM and other radiation transport simulations including FLUKA. We present a broad overview of BDSIM developments related to a variety of experiments at several facilities. We present a model of the forward experiment FASER at the LHC, CERN where the geometry is composited from multiple sources using Pyg4ometry. The analysis of particle history is presented as well as production mechanisms. We also present the application of recently introduced laser interactions in Geant4 to Compton photons from a laserwire diagnostic at the ATF2.
