If instead highZ is grater than lowZ, the routine * will select all the nuclei with charges in the range [lowZ, highZ]; in practice, an event will survive the selection if * its charge as obtained from TrkNuclei is in the range [Zmean(lowZ) - sigma(Z)*lowerBound, Zmean(highZ) + sigma(highZ)*upperBound]. * * Zmean and sigma are defined respectively as the mean and the standard deviation of the charge distributions obtained using TrkNuclei. * In current implementation, calibrations for Z=1 and Z=2 for mean dE/dx Vs. rigidity are: * * Z=1 | mean sigma * ------------------------ * | 0.992 0.06 * * * Z=2 | mean sigma * ------------------------ * | 1.99 0.1 * * For all other cases (Z>2 or single plane releases or dE/dx Vs. beta), means are taken to be equal to the charge value (Zmean = Z) and sigmas are: * * Z | sigma * ----------- * 1 | 0.09 * 2 | 0.10 * 3 | 0.17 * 4 | 0.34 * 5 | 0.44 * 6 | 0.59 * * The TofNuclei calibrations used are the standard ones (from Wolfgang, see TrkNuclei.cpp). * First of all, the number of layers giving a valid charge information is checked to be greater than minLayers; if it's not so, * the routine will return #TRKNUCLEIZ_TOOFEWLAYERS. Next, it will check if the charge obtained considering the mean dE/dx in the tracker's * layers is in the validity range if the constructor's flag howToCheckMean was set to TRKNUCLEIZ_CHECKMEAN; otherwise, it will check each * single valid charge value (mean for X and Y views) obtained from each layer.
