Dear Gaters,

 installed the VGATE 8.2 platform. and I have doubts about the Random
engines.
As a Monte Carlo tool, GATE needs a random generator, and three different
random engines are currently available in GATE, the Ranlux64, the James
Random and the Mersenne Twister.
I would like to know what is most indicated for SPECT simulations, because
in the SPECT macro file it's defined Ranlux64, but the manual refers that
the default one is Mersenne Twister.

  Thank you for your attention and I look forward to an answer.
