Method Detail

getCellID0

int getCellID0()

Same name as in CalorimeterHit, even though there are no 'cells' in this case

getCellID1

int getCellID1()

Same name as in CalorimeterHit, even though there are no 'cells' in this case Optional, check/set flag(LCIO::RTHBIT_ID1)==1.

getPosition

double[] getPosition()

The hit position in [mm].

getCovMatrix

float[] getCovMatrix()

Covariance of the position (x,y,z), stored as lower triangle matrix. i.e. cov(x,x) , cov(y,x) , cov(y,y) , cov(z,x) , cov(z,y) , cov(z,z).

getdEdx

float getdEdx()

Deprecated.

The dE/dx of the hit in [GeV].

See Also:

getEDep()

getTime

float getTime()

The time of the hit in [ns].

getType

int getType()

Type of hit. Mapping of integer types to type names through collection parameters "TrackerHitTypeNames" and "TrackerHitTypeValues".

getQuality

int getQuality()

The quality bit flag of the hit

getEDep

float getEDep()

The energy deposited on the hit [GeV]

getEDepError

float getEDepError()

The error measured on EDep [GeV]

getRawHits

List getRawHits()

The raw data hits. Check getType() to get actual data type.
