Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DecayForest()

DecayForest ( const std::string &  full_decaystring, bool  save_memory = true, bool  removeRadiativeGammaFlag = false  )

explicit

Create a DecayForest from a full decaystring outputted by ParticleMCDecayString.

Parameters

full_decaystring	full decay string
save_memory	by storing only the reconstructed and first valid original DecayTree
removeRadiativeGammaFlag	remove radiative photons from decay string. Handle with care: In the decay B+ --> e+ nu_e gamma, the gamma would be removed although this might be your signal.
