Detailed Description

The MET EDProduct type.

This is the fundemental class for missing transverse momentum (a.k.a MET).

It is a BaseMET type, but more data may be added later (EEMF, ECHF, etc.)

The class inherits from RecoCandidate, and so is stored in the event as a candidate. The actual MET information is contained in the RecoCandidate LorentzVector while supplimentary information is stored as varibles in the MET class itself (such as SumET). As there may have been more than one correction applied to the missing transverse momentum, a vector of corrections to the missing px and the missing py is maintained so that one can always recover the uncorrected MET by applying the negative of each correction.
