◆ DeclareInterfaceID()

iFatras::IEnergyLossSampler::DeclareInterfaceID ( IEnergyLossSampler  ,
,
 
)

Creates the InterfaceID and interfaceID() method.

◆ dEdX()

virtual double iFatras::IEnergyLossSampler::dEdX ( const Trk::MaterialProperties mat,
double  momentum,
Trk::ParticleHypothesis  particle = Trk::pion 
) const
pure virtual

dEdX calculation when providing MaterialProperties, a momentum, and a ParicleHypothesis.

◆ energyLoss()

virtual Trk::EnergyLoss* iFatras::IEnergyLossSampler::energyLoss ( const Trk::MaterialProperties mat,
double  momentum,
double  pathcorrection,
Trk::PropDirection  dir = Trk::alongMomentum,
Trk::ParticleHypothesis  particle = Trk::pion,
bool  mpv = false 
) const
pure virtual

deltaE calculation using dEdX and integrating along pathlength, assuming constant dEdX during for the path.

  • The sign depends on the given propagation direction
  • mpv steers the most probable energy loss
  • Units: [MeV]
