[Gate-users] Ge-68 isotope

[Pietrzyk, Uwe]

Hi,

did you switch on the radioactive decay in the "physics.mac"?
Please, check the one I've attached to this eMail.

Kind Regards,

U. Pietrzyk

Hallo Prof. Pietrzyk,
The problem is that the data are not saved into the root file, although the simulation seems to run normally. Do you have any experience, why is that. Both gamma and pistron work well with me in the simulation, only with Ge68.
Regards,
Bassim
