virtual void fastjet::JetDefinition::Plugin::run_clustering ( ClusterSequence ) const
pure virtual
virtual bool fastjet::JetDefinition::Plugin::supports_ghosted_passive_areas ( ) const
inlinevirtual

return true if there is specific support for the measurement of passive areas, in the sense that areas determined from all particles below the ghost separation scale will be a passive area.

[If you don't understand this, ignore it!]

Reimplemented in fastjet::SISConeSphericalPlugin.

virtual bool fastjet::JetDefinition::Plugin::is_spherical ( ) const
inlinevirtual

returns true if the plugin implements an algorithm intended for use on a spherical geometry (e.g.

e+e- algorithms, as opposed to most pp algorithms, which use a cylindrical, rapidity-phi geometry).

Reimplemented in fastjet::SISConeSphericalPlugin, and fastjet::EECambridgePlugin.
