Interface TrackerPulse

All Superinterfaces:

Cloneable, LCObject

All Known Implementing Classes:

ITrackerPulse, SIOTrackerPulse

public interface TrackerPulse
extends LCObject

Tracker pulses as computed from TrackerData objects or as directly measured by a specific subdetector. Typically TrackerHIts are created from TrackerPulses by some sort of clustering.

TrackerRawData, TrackerData

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
int	getCellID0() Returns the first detector specific (geometrical) cell id.
int	getCellID1() Returns the second detector specific (geometrical) cell id.
float	getCharge() The integrated charge of the pulse - arbitrary units.
float[]	getCovMatrix() Covariance matrix of the charge (c) and time (t) measurements.
int	getQuality() The quality bit flag of the pulse - check/set collection parameters TrackerPulseQualityNames and TrackerPulseQualityNamesValues.
float	getTime() The time of the pulse - arbitrary units.
TrackerData	getTrackerData() Optionally the TrackerData that has been used to create the pulse can be stored with the pulse - NULL if none.

Method Detail

getCellID0

int getCellID0()

Returns the first detector specific (geometrical) cell id.

getCellID1

int getCellID1()

Returns the second detector specific (geometrical) cell id. Optional, check/set flag(LCIO::TRAWBIT_ID1)==1.

getTime

float getTime()

The time of the pulse - arbitrary units.

getCharge

float getCharge()

The integrated charge of the pulse - arbitrary units.

getCovMatrix

float[] getCovMatrix()

Covariance matrix of the charge (c) and time (t) measurements. Stored as lower triangle matrix, i.e. cov(c,c) , cov(t,c) , cov(t,t). Optional, check/set flag(LCIO::TRAWBIT_CM)==1.

getQuality

int getQuality()

The quality bit flag of the pulse - check/set collection parameters TrackerPulseQualityNames and TrackerPulseQualityNamesValues.

getTrackerData

TrackerData getTrackerData()

Optionally the TrackerData that has been used to create the pulse can be stored with the pulse - NULL if none. Check the quality bits for reason why the spectrum has been stored for the pulse.
