Abstract
Spherical proportional counters are novel gaseous detectors with numerous
applications, including neutron spectroscopy and searches for dark matter and
neutrinoless double beta decay. A simulation framework is presented that
combines the Geant4 and Garfield++ toolkits. Example results from the
application of this simulation framework in different experimental contexts are
shown.
