Zusammenfassung:An extended model for charged particle transport through the multiple scattering formalism based on the Molière theory has been developed (by A.F. and P.S.). The new model has been implemented independently through two different algorithms in the Monte Carlo codes FLUKA (used predominantly in high energy applications for transport of hadrons and leptons) and MCNPE-BO (based on MCNP3a and employed in the field of radiation protection and dosimetry). The codes are currently being benchmarked on a variety of referee problems in their respective fields of applications.
