Class Documentation

class Acts::PlaneLayer : public virtual Acts::PlaneSurface, public Acts::Layer

Class to describe a planar detector layer for tracking, it inhertis from both, Layer base class and PlaneSurface class.

Public Functions

PlaneLayer() = delete
PlaneLayer(const PlaneLayer &pla) = delete
~PlaneLayer() override = default
PlaneLayer &operator=(const PlaneLayer&) = delete
const PlaneSurface &surfaceRepresentation() const override

Transforms the layer into a Surface representation for extrapolation.

Return

returns a reference to a PlaneSurface

PlaneSurface &surfaceRepresentation() override

Public Static Functions

MutableLayerPtr create(const Transform3 &transform, std::shared_ptr<const PlanarBounds> pbounds, std::unique_ptr<SurfaceArray> surfaceArray = nullptr, double thickness = 0., std::unique_ptr<ApproachDescriptor> ad = nullptr, LayerType laytyp = Acts::active)

Factory for a shared plane layer.

Return

shared pointer to a PlaneLayer

Parameters
  • transform: which places the layer in the global frame

  • pbounds: the planar bounds that define the layer dimensions

  • surfaceArray: is the surface array that holds the sensitive surfaces

  • thickness: is the thickness of the layer (normal direction to plane)

  • ad: is the approach descriptor for describing the approach surface

  • laytyp: is the layer type

Protected Functions

PlaneLayer(const Transform3 &transform, std::shared_ptr<const PlanarBounds> &pbounds, std::unique_ptr<SurfaceArray> surfaceArray = nullptr, double thickness = 0., std::unique_ptr<ApproachDescriptor> ades = nullptr, LayerType laytyp = Acts::active)

Private constructor for a PlaneLayer is called by create(args*)

Return

shared pointer to a PlaneLayer

Parameters
  • transform: which places the layer in the global frame

  • pbounds: the planar bounds that define the layer dimensions

  • surfaceArray: is the surface array that holds the sensitive surfaces

  • thickness: is the thickness of the layer (normal direction to plane)

  • ades: is the approach descriptor for describing the approach surface

  • laytyp: is the layer type

PlaneLayer(const PlaneLayer &pla, const Transform3 &shift)

Private constructor for a PlaneLayer, is called by create(arge*.

Parameters
  • pla: is the plain layer to be coped

  • shift: is the additional shift applied after copying
