    Dear Fluka users and authors,

    Thanks Dr. Giuseppe Battistoni for test for me.
    According to his/her advice, I comment the three LOW-MAT lines of NITROGEN,
    ARGON and CALCIUM.
    The running is never stop. I don't know why. Could any person please test and
    check it for me?

    Thanks and best regards,
    R.G. Wang

    Dear Ruiguang Wang,
    The mistake is in the use of LOW-MAT cards for NITROGEN, ARGON and CALCIUM
    (by the way you should write CALCIUM and not CALSIUM)
    You do not need to put the LOW-MAT card for these elements (and for many
    others: please read carefully the manual for the LOW-MAT use): just take
    them away, or comment them. Everything is working as far as the rest is
    concerned (I tested it).
    Next time please send your requests to fluka-discuss@fluka.org
            Good luck
                    Giuseppe Battistoni for the FLUKA team
