Function Documentation

float Acts::computeMultipleScatteringTheta0(const MaterialSlab &slab, int pdg, float m, float qOverP, float q = UnitConstants::e)

Compute the core width of the projected planar scattering distribution.

Parameters
  • slab: The traversed material and its properties

  • pdg: Particle type PDG identifier

  • m: Particle mass

  • qOverP: Particle charge divided by absolute momentum

  • q: Particle charge, only the magnitude is considered
