Method Detail

getSignal

double getSignal()

Returns signal in the channel. The signal value is the digitization algorithm output if running on Monte Carlo, calibrated and corrected signal if runnung on data.

getTime

double getTime()

Returns time associated with the hit.

getSensor

Sensor getSensor()

Returns Sensor object this hit belongs to.

getChannel

int getChannel()

Returns channel ID on the sensor.

isComposite

boolean isComposite()

Returns true if the hit is a superposition of more than one elemental hit.

getElementalHits

List<DigiTrackerHit> getElementalHits()

Returns a list of underlying elemental hits. If the hit is not composite, returns a list with a single element - this hit.

getMCParticle

MCParticle getMCParticle()

Returns MCParticle that produced the hit. If the hit is composite, or does not have MCParticle associated with it (noise, beam test data, etc.), returns null.
