Constructor & Destructor Documentation

fastjet::BackgroundRescalingYPolynomial::BackgroundRescalingYPolynomial ( double  a0 = 1,
double  a1 = 0,
double  a2 = 0,
double  a3 = 0,
double  a4 = 0 
) [inline]

construct a background rescaling polynomial of the form a0 + a1*y + a2*y^2 + a3*y^3 + a4*y^4

The following values give a reasonable reproduction of the Pythia8 tune 4C background shape for pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7TeV:

  • a0 = 1.157
  • a1 = 0
  • a2 = -0.0266
  • a3 = 0
  • a4 = 0.000048
