Member Function Documentation

const PaDetect& PaMChit::DetRef

(

)

const [inline]

returns reference to detector this MC hit belongs to.

Warning:

valid for tracking detectors only. Check iDet() first (must be >= 0)

References PaSetup::Detector(), and PaSetup::Ref().

Referenced by Print().

const int& PaMChit::iDet

(

)

const [inline]

Tracking detector's position in the vector vecDetect of PaSetup.

Returns -1 if MC hit comes from non-tracking detector such as RICH, HCAL etc. (In this case detector of origin could be easily recognized just by Z coordinate)

Referenced by Print().

const double PaMChit::Time

(

)

const [inline]

Time in [ns] (with respect to GEANT's time "zero".).

Warning:

c*L is subtracted, where c - speed of light, L is minimal path length of trajectory from vertex of origin to position of this hit.
