      // Example: Candidates have a mt() function which computes the tranverse mass from E & pz.
      // As MET does not have pz information... WMuNuCandidates have an alternative function used in the WMuNu Inclusive Analysis
      // to compute mt just from px, py:
      // Transverse Mass from px, py:
      double massT() const;
      // Transverse Energy from px, py:
      double eT() const;
