[Gate-users] coma, VanAdium and related materials in GateMaterials.db

[Marcin Balcerzyk]

Dear Simon.

In GateMaterials.db (from Gate version 5.0) all materials that include V
(which there is consequently Vandium, instead of correct Vanadium), have
this misplaced coma instead of semicolon. The affected materials are
Adipose, LungMoby and Body. There were recently several postings concerning
Adipose and LungMoby malfunctioning. 

Maybe the future patch of Gate should have the V element name corrected and
the coma-semicolon issue corrected?

Hi,

I found this line in your file !

        +el: name=Vandium   , f=0.0

There is a "," instead of a ";".
