Detailed Description

Class that encodes information about cuts and other selection criteria that can be applied to PseudoJet(s).

Definition at line 141 of file Selector.hh.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

fastjet::Selector::Selector ( SelectorWorker worker_in) [inline]

constructor that causes the Selector to use the supplied worker

Note that the Selector takes ownership of the pointer to the worker (and so will delete automatically when appropriate).

Definition at line 151 of file Selector.hh.

fastjet::Selector::Selector ( const RangeDefinition range)

ctor from a RangeDefinition

This is provided for backward compatibility and will be removed in a future major release of FastJet

Watch out that the Selector will only hold a pointer to the range so the selector will crash if one tries to use it after the range has gone out of scope. We thus strongly advise against the direct use of this constructor.

Definition at line 1423 of file Selector.cc.


Member Function Documentation

unsigned int fastjet::Selector::count ( const std::vector< PseudoJet > &  jets) const

Return a count of the objects that pass the selection.

This will often be more efficient that getting the vector of objects that passes and then evaluating the size of the vector

Definition at line 74 of file Selector.cc.

virtual void fastjet::Selector::nullify_non_selected ( std::vector< const PseudoJet * > &  jets) const [inline, virtual]

For each jet that does not pass the cuts, this routine sets the pointer to 0.

It is legitimate for some (or all) of the pointers that are passed to already be NULL.

Definition at line 208 of file Selector.hh.

bool fastjet::Selector::is_geometric ( ) const [inline]

returns true if it is a geometric selector (i.e.

one that only puts constraints on rapidities and azimuthal angles)

Definition at line 224 of file Selector.hh.

bool fastjet::Selector::has_finite_area ( ) const [inline]

returns true if it has a meaningful and finite area (i.e.

the Selector has the property that is_geometric() returns true and the rapidity extent is finite).

Definition at line 231 of file Selector.hh.

double fastjet::Selector::area ( ) const

returns the rapidity-phi area associated with the Selector (throws InvalidArea if the area does not make sense).

If the result is not known analytically, the area will be estimated using a pseudo Monte Carlo method (as for jet areas), using the default ghost area from the GhostedAreaSpec class (0.01). The Monte Carlo estimate involves a time penalty proportional to the ratio of the rapidity extent of the Selector divided by the ghost area.

Definition at line 137 of file Selector.cc.

double fastjet::Selector::area ( double  ghost_area) const

returns the rapidity-phi area associated with the Selector (throws InvalidArea if the area does not make sense).

The behaviour is the as with the area() call, but with the ability to additionally specify the ghost area to be used in the case of a Monte Carlo area evaluation.

Definition at line 142 of file Selector.cc.

void fastjet::Selector::_copy_worker_if_needed ( ) [inline, protected]

Helper for copying selector workers if needed.

The following is needed if we want to modify a selectors that shares a worker with another selector. In that case, we need to get another copy of the worker to avoid interferences

Note that any non-const operation has to call this to behave correctly w.r.t shared workers!
