Function Documentation

RawParticle rawparticle::makeMuon	(	bool	isParticle,
		const math::XYZTLorentzVector &	p,
		const math::XYZTLorentzVector &	xStart
	)

Create a particle with momentum 'p' at space-time point xStart The particle will be a muon if iParticle==true, else it will be an anti-muon.
