However, unfortunately, both of your solutions does not resolve the problem. 1. I tried newest patch of Geant4 (e.g., v.4.10.01.p02) but same G4exception occurred. 2. I found how to change tolerance in G4 User Guide. Gate main or detector construction was modified so that it has G4GeometryManager just before defining any geometrical component of the setup. e.g., G4GeometryManager::GetInstance()->SetWorldMaximumExtent(some value); Tolerance change was observed using G4GeometryTolerance and tolerance was smaller than e-9 mm. However, same G4exception remains if I use setRmin. I'm going to test same thing with Geant4 alone and report it in Geant4 Problem reporting system. I would appreciate any comments if you have any insights on this issue.

The first is to try using the version of G4Sphere from the newest patch of Geant4. You can copy the source file into your installation, and, if needed only the header file and inline icc file from the include directory - and of course then the rebuild Geant4 libraries.</div> <div> </div> <div>The second concerns the tolerance. The default value is 1.e-09 mm, which is not small enough for your geometry. You can see in the Users Guide how to adapt it to the size of your setup.</div> <div> </div> <div>If your problem remains, I suggest to report it in the Geant4 Problem reporting system.</div> <div> </div> <div>Regards,</div> <div>John Apostolakis </div> <div> On 10 Nov 2015, at 08:15, 성원모 <<a href="mailto:wsung@snu.ac.kr">wsung@snu.ac.kr</a>> wrote: </div> <blockquote type="cite"> <div> <div id="divtagdefaultwrapper" style="font-size:12pt; color:#000000; background-color:#FFFFFF; font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"> Dear Gate users Hello I'm currently using Gate v7.1.

This error does not occur if I replace nm with mm OR if I use 0 nm for setRmin (=full sphere). Could you provide any comments or help to solve this problem?
