Detailed Description

Material manager provides access to the material properties of the detector. Material can be accessed either for a given point or as a list of materials along a straight line between two points.

Instantiate the MaterialManager for this (world) volume.

Member Function Documentation

createAveragedMaterial()

MaterialData dd4hep::rec::MaterialManager::createAveragedMaterial

(

const MaterialVec &

materials

)

Create a material with averaged properties from all materials in the list. A and Z are averaged by relative number of atoms(molecules), rho is averaged by relative volume and the inverse radiation and interaction lengths are averaged by relative weight.

Definition at line 196 of file MaterialManager.cpp.

materialAt()

const Material & dd4hep::rec::MaterialManager::materialAt

(

const Vector3D &

pos

)

Get the material at the given position.

Definition at line 166 of file MaterialManager.cpp.

materialsBetween()

const MaterialVec & dd4hep::rec::MaterialManager::materialsBetween	(	const Vector3D &	p0,
		const Vector3D &	p1,
		double	epsilon = 1e-4
	)

Get a vector with all the materials between the two points p0 and p1 with the corresponding thicknesses - element type is std::pair< Material, double >. Materials with a thickness smaller than epsilon (default 1e-4=1mu) are ignored. Avoid calling this method in inner loops as the computation is not cheap. Ideally the result should be cached, for example as an averaged material

placementAt()

PlacedVolume dd4hep::rec::MaterialManager::placementAt

(

const Vector3D &

pos

)

Get the placed volume at the given position.

Definition at line 181 of file MaterialManager.cpp.

placementsBetween()

const PlacementVec & dd4hep::rec::MaterialManager::placementsBetween	(	const Vector3D &	p0,
		const Vector3D &	p1,
		double	epsilon = 1e-4
	)

Get a vector with all the placements between the two points p0 and p1
