Summary:The Geant4 physicsjists package encompasses predefined selections of physics processes and models to be used in simulation applications. Limited documentation is available in the literature about Geant4 pre-packaged PhysicsLists and their validation. The reports in the literature mainly concern specific use cases. This paper documents the epistemological grounds for the validation of Geant4 pre-packaged PhysicsLists (and their accessory classes, Builders and PhysicsConstructors) and some examples of the author's scientific activity on this subject.
