[Gate-users] problem on secondary particle generation

Dear Alessio,

It works with the modification! Thanks for your help.
It is interesting that I tried the same example1/ on a GATE v6.2, and it worked there with the C11[0.0] notation without problem.

Best,

Yuncheng

Dear Yuncheng

The „problem“ is related to the filtering itself describe at line 115 of your main.mac file:

/gate/actor/carbonMap/particleFilter/addParticle   C11[0.0]

if you change this line with the following one

/gate/actor/carbonMap/particleFilter/addParticle   C11

you should get your wanted output for C11. Honestly, I am still not sure what those brackets are standing for…
I will come back to you with more input.

Hope it can help meanwhile!

Cheers
Alessio

Dear All,

Maybe it has been addressed previously, I am wondering if anyone have successfully run the sample at example/example_Radiotherapy\example1. I tried it with both proton and carbon as incident particles in the mac/main.mac file. Both times I had the energy data output, while the C11 files were all empty. The primary beam number was 1e5. The GATE version is 7.1.

How should I change the GATE code or the example1 code to make it produce secondary particles correctly?

Thanks!

Yuncheng
