[Tpe] Simulations in 64bit

[Will Brooks]

Hi,

  These are very nice results.

  To my eye, however, it looks like there are less hits originating in 
the detector, and more hits originating in the beam dump. It is as if 
the simulating is ignoring your instructions to stop the hits at 10 cm 
before floor level. What do you think?

Thanks,

  - Will
