Class ParticleF

java.lang.Object

hephysics.jet.ParticleF

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<ParticleF>

public class ParticleF
extends Object
implements Comparable<ParticleF>, Serializable

A class representing a jet or particle with pre-computed et, et2, phi, eta (float values). It uses floats to speedup calculations for jet fundings. The class is used by light-weight hephysics.jets.KTjet algorithm. "F" means float calculations The class has a minimum dynamic computation to minimize CPU. Use LParticle for (slower) dynamic calculations. To use double precision calculations, use hephysics.jets.ParticleD class.
