Member Function Documentation

double calcNewSHat ( double  sHatOld)

Calculate and return rescaled sHat according to the process.

Calculates the new sHat for direct-direct and direct-resolved processes.

Need to recalculate only if two photons.

Calculate the new sHat for direct-resolved system.

Otherwise no need for a new value.

bool deriveKin ( double  xGamma,
double  Q2gamma,
double  m2Beam,
double  eCM2 
)

Sample the Q2 values and phi angles for each beam and derive kT according to sampled x_gamma. Check that sampled values within required limits.

Sample azimuthal angle from flat [0,2*pi[.

Calculate kT^2 for photon from particle with non-zero mass.

If no virtuality sampled set transverse momentum to zero.

Check that physical values for kT (very rarely fails if ever but may cause numerical issues).

Calculate the transverse and longitudinal momenta and scattering angle of the beam particle.

Done.

bool finalize ( )

Save the accepted values for further use.

Propagate the sampled values for beam particles.

Set the sampled values also to Info object.

Keep old mGmGm for 2->1 processes with direct photons.

Done.

double fluxWeight ( )

Calculate weight from oversampling with approximated flux.

Initially unit weight.

Calculate the weight according to accurate flux.

When no sampling of virtuality use the Q2-integrated flux.

Done.

bool init ( )

Sample the trial or final event kinematics.

Initialize phase space limits.

The GammaKinematics class. Generates the kinematics of emitted photons according to phase space limits.

Rejection based on theta only when beams set in CM frame.

Save the applied cuts.

Initial choice for the process type and whether to use over-estimated flux for sampling.

Flag from virtuality sampling.

Check if photons from both beams or only from one beam.

Get the masses and collision energy and derive useful ratios.

Id of the beam if not a photon inside the beam.

Calculate the CM-energies of incoming beams.

Derive ratios used often.

Derive the kinematic limits.

No limits for xGamma if Q2-integrated flux.

If Wmax below Wmin (negative by default) use the total invariant mass.

Done.

bool sampleKTgamma ( bool  nonDiff = false)

Sampling of the kinematics of the intermediate photon.

Sample kinematics of one or two photon beams from the original beams.

Get the sampled x_gamma values from beams.

Type of current process.

Reject already sampled x_gamma values outside kinematic bounds.

Sample virtuality for photon A.

Sample the x_gamma value if needed and check that value is valid.

Derive the accurate lower Q2 limit and sample value.

Sample the Q2 if requested, otherwise pick use the maximum value.

Reject sampled values outside limits (relevant for external flux).

Sample virtuality for photon B.

Sample the x_gamma value if needed and check that value is valid.

Derive the accurate lower Q2 limit and sample value.

Sample the Q2 if requested, otherwise pick use the maximum value.

Reject sampled values outside limits (relevant for external flux).

Derive the full photon momenta from the sampled values.

Reject kinematics if a scattering angle above cut.

Reject kinematics if a scattering angle above cut.

Invariant mass of photon-photon system.

Derive the invariant mass and check the kinematic limits.

Check if derived value within bounds set by user.

Calculate invariant mass now that the square is positive.

Invariant mass of photon-hadron system.

Derive the invariant mass and check the limits. Solve the longitudinal momentum of beam particles in CM frame.

Pick the correct beam mass and photon kinematics.

Calculate the invariant mass of the photon-hadron pair and check limits.
