Thank you Beien Wang and Arun Gupta for your help.

Beien Wang - I have got the output (ASCII) files (Hits.dat and Singles.dat)
and I am not sure about plotting the 2D histogram of the XY coordinates.  I
am following the link
(
http://wiki.opengatecollaboration.org/index.php/Users_Guide_V7.2:Data_output#The_ASCII_output
)
to identify the columns of the files.

Could you please tell me which column and which file I should use to plot
the 2D histogramme of the XY coordinates to get optical photon distribution?

Thank you.

Regards,
Kajal
