Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MTruthParticle::MTruthParticle	(	Double_t	px,
		Double_t	py,
		Double_t	pz,
		Double_t	E,
		Int_t	status = 0,
		Int_t	pdg = 0
	)

Constructor for the 4 vector. Optionally takes the status code and PDG ID also.

Constructor where the user can define the four momentum components. Also it optionally takes the status code and PDG ID of the particle.

MTruthParticle::MTruthParticle

(

const MTruthParticle &

tp

)

Copy Constuctor.

Copy constructor.

Member Function Documentation

UInt_t MTruthParticle::GetMCOrigin

(

)

const

Get Origin of MC particle.

Return MC origin see ParticleOrigin in http://alxr.usatlas.bnl.gov/lxr/source/atlas/PhysicsAnalysis/MCTruthClassifier/MCTruthClassifier/MCTruthClassifierDefs.h for definition

UInt_t MTruthParticle::GetMCType

(

)

const

Get type of MC particle.

Return MC type see ParticleType in http://alxr.usatlas.bnl.gov/lxr/source/atlas/PhysicsAnalysis/MCTruthClassifier/MCTruthClassifier/MCTruthClassifierDefs.h for definition

string MTruthParticle::Type

(

)

const [virtual]

So we know what type of particle this is at run time.

At run time we may have a vector<MParticle*> which could for example contain both electrons and muons. This function lets you know which particle it is.

Reimplemented from manchester::MParticle.
