Detailed Description

Define three-vector and four-vector classes for the HitFit package, and supply a few additional operations.

This file defines the type Threevec and Fourvec to be used in HitFit. These classes are based on the corresponding CLHEP classes. This file also provides some other operations in addition to those that CLHEP has.
