generic_position_formula()

float SiPixelUtils::generic_position_formula	(	int	size,
		int	q_f,
		int	q_l,
		float	upper_edge_first_pix,
		float	lower_edge_last_pix,
		float	lorentz_shift,
		float	theThickness,
		float	cot_angle,
		float	pitch,
		bool	first_is_big,
		bool	last_is_big,
		float	eff_charge_cut_low,
		float	eff_charge_cut_high,
		float	size_cut
	)

A generic version of the position formula. Since it works for both X and Y, in the interest of the simplicity of the code, all parameters are passed by the caller.

Parameters

size	Size of this projection.
q_f	Charge in the first pixel.
q_l	Charge in the last pixel.
upper_edge_first_pix	As the name says.
lower_edge_last_pix	As the name says.
lorentz_shift	L-shift at half thickness
cot_angle	cot of alpha_ or beta_
pitch	thePitchX or thePitchY
first_is_big	true if the first is big
last_is_big	true if the last is big
eff_charge_cut_low	Use edge if > w_eff &&&
eff_charge_cut_high	Use edge if < w_eff &&&
size_cut	Use edge when size == cuts
