Description
One of the important features of the VecGeom is the sampling of random points on the surface of solids. It is used for the overlap check, a procedure that detects places where different volumes overlap each other. As VecGeom is only under development, its algorithms for the sampling of random points should be checked for uniformity. This work presents results of comparison of random points generation on different tips of solids in Geant4 and Geant4+VecGeom.
