[Gate-users] core dump

Hi,

I think this is quite common for the GATE simulation. I always have these 
kind of problem and no
easy way to solve it.

        Subject:        [Gate-users] core dump


All,

For my work, I would like to be able to simulate positrons emitted from a 
point source in air. To do so, I am enclosing the source in a 1 mm radius 
sphere of water for attenuation and annihilation. I recognize that doing 
so likely means some positrons will escape the world volume without 
annihilating. 

However, sometimes (not all the time), my simulations of point sources at 
different locations return a segmentation violation and a core dump. 
Often, I am able to rerun the same simulation with a different seed 
without problems. The error message is below, slightly abbreviated to 
reduce the size of my log files (if it might help to have a more detailed 
output, I am happy to change my settings and provide this):
