TkRadialStripTopology Class Reference

#include <TkRadialStripTopology.h>

Detailed Description

A StripTopology in which the component strips subtend a constant angular width, and, if projected, intersect at a point.

WARNING! Wherever 'float strip' is used the units of 'strip' are angular widths of each strip. The range is from 0.0 at the extreme edge of the 'first' strip at one edge of the detector, to nstrip*angular width at the other edge.
The centre of the first strip is at strip = 0.5
The centre of the last strip is at strip = 0.5 + (nstrip-1)
This is for consistency with CommonDet usage of 'float strip' (but where units are strip pitch rather than strip angular width.)

WARNING! If the mid-point along local y of the plane of strips does not correspond to the local coordinate origin, set the final ctor argument appropriately.
