Authors: Carlo Mancini-Terracciano, Roma 1, INFN, Italy

Short description: Test on the nuclear interaction models available in Geant4 for low energy carbon ions.

Geant-val layout: LowEC12Frag

Reference data: double-differential cross sections of the secondary fragments produced in C-12 fragmentation at 62 MeV/n on a thin carbon target. This dataset has been acquired by M.
