This corridor is currently * defined by: * * dE/dx > _p[0] / (_p[1] * beta + _p[2]) + _p[3] + _p[4] * beta * dE/dx < _p[5] / (_p[6] * beta + _p[7]) + _p[8] + _p[9] * beta * * where p[i] are calibration parameters. Currently, they are available for each single layer; the beta used is the beta[12] corresponding * to the TOF standalone track or to the TRK physical track, depending on the value of the standAlone parameter of the constructor. The * cut parameters have been obtained using the standalone beta. Currently, no test has been made to see if these parameters are good also * for beta from TRK track. * If the required combination of planes has no available calibration, the one for S21 will be used. Currently, the 9th reduction uses * a dE/dx calibration which allow to use an (almost) unique set of parameters for all layers, but the possibility to define cut parameters * for each layer is maintained for possible future refinements. * Note that there's no currently available calibration for combinations of layers, so using mean release on many layers could potentially * result in an undefined behavior, but given the almost constant cut parameters it should work as expected (however, THIS HAS NOT BEEN TESTED * AND IS NOT GUARANTEED). */ class TofDedxHCut: public PamCut { public: /*! @brief Constructor. * * @param cutName The cut's name. * @param layer The layer to use.
