Dear Nicola

you are right, invoking PEANUT via SPECSOUR to simulate a hadron-nucleus
[hA] collision (which is what PEANUT handles) as source event, leads to a
crash due an initialization bug, to be fixed soon. DPMJET works correctly,
but it applies to hA above 20 TeV (proj kin energy in the reference system
with target at rest).

As side remarks, note that i. a source user routine is obviously not
compatible with the special source internal routine activated via SPECSOUR
and ii. SPECSOUR WHAT(12) is the mass number of the second beam particle
(and not the mass in nuclear mass units) and therefore must be an integer

Cheers

Francesco
