Description David Sangcheol Lee 2015-11-19 22:58:37 CET 
Hello I have a problem with the simulation running with GEANT4.10.1 patch 2.

I have set to get neutron energy by setting GetkineticEnergy/keV in stepping actions class.

However, the simulation gets stopped few hours later with "Core dump" error.

This does not happen if I set the unit as MeV.

I use QGSP_BIC_HP cascade.

We have an expert of GEANT4 in my department and he ran gdb. It seems like the usersteppingaction class stopped during the process of particle simulation.

I and my collegue believe that this problem could be a bug in the program.

Could you investigate this ?

Thank you

More details are needed:

1) what type and energy of particles are you shooting into your detector?
2) briefly describe your geometry
3) please include the core dump output and the traceback from gdb.

Since the required details have not been provided in the last three months, I will close this report.
