doesParticleHavePNDaughters()

bool analysis::doesParticleHavePNDaughters	(	const ldmx::SimParticle &	gamma,
		const std::map< int, ldmx::SimParticle > &	particleMap )

Helper function to getPNGamma.

Checks if a particle has daughter particles produced by the photonNuclear process type that are present in the particle map.

getPNGamma()

const ldmx::SimParticle * analysis::getPNGamma	(	const std::map< int, ldmx::SimParticle > &	particleMap,
		const ldmx::SimParticle *	recoil,
		const float &	energyThreshold )

Get a pointer to the sim particle associated with the photon that underwent a photo-nuclear reaction.

Returns the first particle in the map that underwent a PN interaction and has an energy above the threshold. If more than one particle satisfied this condition, this will NOT notice.

Parameters

[in]	particleMap	Map of sim particles
[in]	recoil	The recoil electron
[in]	energyThreshold	The energy that the photon energy must be greater than.

Returns

[out] Pointer to sim particle labeled as PN Gamma photon (nullptr if not found)
