/*
 * Original author: Alexander Nehrkorn (RWTH Aachen)
 *
 * Description:
 * This module rejects tau candidates that do not have unit charge.
 * It takes the fact into account that taus do not necessarily need
 * to be created from PF charged hadrons only but can be created
 * from a combination of PF charged hadrons and tracks.
