Daer all users,
I defined Lu-177(with all of it's emissions) in GATE4.0.0 and I set all of
relevant parameters for it.
at first, I set G4LEVELGAMMADATA as following:

export G4LEVELGAMMADATA=/g4/GATE4/geant4.9.1.p02/data/PhotonEvaporation2.0

The commands for definition of Lu-177 ion source are in below:
/gate/source/addSource LuSource
/gate/source/LuSource/setActivity 10000. becquerel
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/particle ion
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/ion 71 177 0 0
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/energytype Mono
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/monoenergy 0. keV
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/number 1
/gate/source/LuSource/setForcedUnstableFlag true
/gate/source/LuSource/setForcedHalfLife 581472. s
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/type Point
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/angtype iso
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/mintheta 0. deg
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/maxtheta 180. deg
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/minphi 0. deg
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/maxphi 360. deg
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/centre 0. 0. 0. cm
/gate/source/LuSource/gps/confine NULL
/gate/source/list

but GATE didn't recognized any source in the running page and shows the
following error and complete the simulation without any source.


parameter value is not listed in the candidate List.
> *****llegal parameter (1) </gate/source/gamma/setActivity 10000. becquerel

what is the reason of this effect?

note: when i use gamma point source (not ion source) the GATE runs well.

regards
