Hi All,

I am a student at the University of New Hampshire, attempting to continue
work on the true muonium section of the HPS experiment. I am looking to run
true muonium data through the simulation software and then analyze the
reconstructed tracks. I have successfully used the software in the past,
but am currently running into an error with readout simulation that I have
never encountered.

I am using hps-distribution-3.0.0-bin.jar, which I believe is the latest
stable release, with detector HPS-Proposal2014-v5-6pt6 and a true muonium
data file that was created by assuming the same decay properties as the
heavy photon, except with a mass of 211 MeV. Below is the command that I am
using to run readout simulation and the error I receive. Is this error
familiar to anyone? Thank you for any help.

Regards,
Chad Civello
