Direct Known Subclasses:

MissFixed, MissTest

public abstract class Miss
extends Object

A miss represents the crossing of a track with a layer surface. It returns the likelihood that the track would cross the layer without producing a cluster. This likelihood should reflect overlap with inactive parts of the detector (beyond boundaries, gaps, dead channels, ...) as well as the intrinsic inefficiency of active regions. This is an abstract base class. Concrete subclasses must provide methods to return the surface and likelihood, update the likelihood, clone and fill the output stream. These subclasses will typically be defined along with concrete layer classes.
