Detailed Description

The calorimeter ionization cut.

Checks the energy release on the first calorimeter plane. The current implementation uses the CaloAxis objects; to save computing time, the class assumes that the track is externally computed for each event and stored in CaloAxis objects; pointers to these objects are passed as arguments to the constructor. The Check method will then ignore the PamLevel2 *event and assume that the current content of the CaloAxis objects are relative to the current event. It is an user's task to ensure that these assumptions are fulfilled every time Check or ApplyCut are called.

CUT DEPENDENCIES: CaloTrackCut for the existence of the track (it can also provide the CaloAxis objects).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CaloIonCut::CaloIonCut	(	const char *	cutName,
		CaloAxis *	xCaloAxis,
		CaloAxis *	yCaloAxis,
		float	minRelease = 0.,
		float	maxRelease = 3.
	)			[inline]

Constructor.

The CaloAxis arguments are objects which contain the calorimeter track information for current event.

Parameters:

	cutName	The cut's name.
	xCaloAxis	The pointer to the CaloAxis object for X axis.
	yCaloAxis	The pointer to the CaloAxis object for Y axis.
	maxRelease	The maximum mean ionization (in MIP) in the tracker planes above which an event is discarded. Default: 3.
	minRelease	The minimum mean ionization (in MIP) in the tracker planes below which an event is discarded. Default: 0.
