Detailed Description

Function Documentation

isCharmBaryon()

bool Rivet::PID::isCharmBaryon ( int pid )

inline

Determine if the PID is that of a c-baryon.

Note

Specifically, the heaviest quark is a c: a baryon containing a b & c is a b-baryon and NOT a c-baryon. To test for the simpler case, just use a combination of hasCharm() and isBaryon().

References hasBottom(), hasCharm(), isBaryon(), and Rivet::pid().

isCharmHadron()

bool Rivet::PID::isCharmHadron ( int pid )

inline

Determine if the PID is that of a c-hadron.

Note

Specifically, the heaviest quark is a c: a baryon containing a b & c is a b-baryon and NOT a c-baryon. To test for the simpler case, just use a combination of hasCharm() and isBaryon().

References hasBottom(), hasCharm(), isHadron(), and Rivet::pid().

isCharmMeson()

bool Rivet::PID::isCharmMeson ( int pid )

inline

Determine if the PID is that of a c-meson.

Note

Specifically, the heaviest quark is a c: a B_c is a b-meson and NOT a c-meson. Charmonia (closed charm) are counted as c-mesons here.

isStrangeBaryon()

bool Rivet::PID::isStrangeBaryon ( int pid )

inline

Determine if the PID is that of a strange baryon

Note

Specifically, the heaviest quark is an s: if it also contains either charm or bottom, it is not considered to be a strange hadron.

References hasBottom(), hasCharm(), hasStrange(), isBaryon(), and Rivet::pid().

isStrangeHadron()

bool Rivet::PID::isStrangeHadron ( int pid )

inline

Determine if the PID is that of a strange hadron

Note

Specifically, the heaviest quark is an s: if it also contains either charm or bottom, it is not considered to be a strange hadron.

References hasBottom(), hasCharm(), hasStrange(), isHadron(), and Rivet::pid().

isStrangeMeson()

bool Rivet::PID::isStrangeMeson ( int pid )

inline

Determine if the PID is that of a strange meson

Note

Specifically, the heaviest quark is an s: if it also contains either charm or bottom, it is not considered to be a strange hadron.
