Javiera,
This problem occurs typically when the distance between two or more
particles is to small compared to the system size. In this case, the
tree must be
very deep and the allocated memory is not large enough to contain it.
If possible, you should increase the allocated memory to the tree
construction,
by increasing the parameter TreeAllocFactor.
However, in some cases, especially when you have a very dissipative
component, some
particles may form clumps and it will be difficult to avoid the problem.
Regards,
Yves
