Nikolai V. Mokhov and Oleg E. Krivosheev

Recent developments of the MARS Monte Carlo code system for simulation of hadronic and electromagnetic cascades in shielding, accelerator and detector components in the energy range from a fraction of an electronvolt up to 100 TeV are described. These include hadron production model, unified treatment of heavy particle electromagnetic interactions and absorption, interface to MCNP for low-energy neutrons, and newly created electromagnetic shower modules (down to 1 keV), MAD-MARS Beam Line Builder and Graphical-User Interface.
