Re: IONTRANS card

Hello Joel,

The EVENTYPE card should be removed, indeed.

Since you requested for an ion beam in the BEAM card, the IONTRANS card is
optional and shouldn't make any difference. In this case ion transport is a
utomatically turned on by default, as the manual says.

The problem is in the USRYIELD cards. Water is material number 26, not 27,
this is listed under the 'Material compositions' section of .out. Material
number 27 is undefined. If you try replacing all occurances of 2703 in your
  USRYIELD cards with 2603, the run should complete gracefully.

(BTW Water=H2O rho=1 is a predefined material. The material definition
is therefore optional.)

Cheers,
mary
