Detailed Description

Implementation of the JScatteringModel interface with that combines two scattering models into one effective model.

Definition at line 519 of file JScatteringModel.hh.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

JCombinedScattering()

JMARKOV::JCombinedScattering::JCombinedScattering ( JScatteringModel * _sm1, JScatteringModel * _sm2 )

inline

Constructor.

Note that this only copies only the pointers to the JScatteringModel instances. So if _sm1 or _sm2 are deleted or changed, it will also affect the behaviour of this instance.

Member Function Documentation

getScatteringLength()

virtual double JMARKOV::JCombinedScattering::getScatteringLength ( )

inlinevirtual

Reimplemented from JMARKOV::JScatteringModel.

Definition at line 532 of file JScatteringModel.hh.

                                         {
      // calculate effective scattering length
      double l1 = sm1->getScatteringLength() ;
      double l2 = sm2->getScatteringLength() ;
      return 1.0 / ( 1.0/l1 + 1.0/l2 ) ;
    }

getScatteringProbability()

double JMARKOV::JCombinedScattering::getScatteringProbability ( double ct )

inlinevirtual

Return the probability density as a function of cos(theta)

dP / dOmega = dP / dcosTheta dPhi

to scatter in a given direction. Theta=0 is forward scattering.

Implements JMARKOV::JScatteringModel.

Definition at line 539 of file JScatteringModel.hh.

                                                 {
      double val1 = sm1->getScatteringProbability(ct) ;
      double val2 = sm2->getScatteringProbability(ct) ;
      double l1 = sm1->getScatteringLength() ;
      double l2 = sm2->getScatteringLength() ;
      double lambda = getScatteringLength() ; 
      // effective scattering probability
      return lambda * ( val1/l1 + val2/l2 ) ;
    }

generateDirection()

JVersor3D JMARKOV::JCombinedScattering::generateDirection ( )

inlinevirtual

Return a randomly generated direction according to the scattering probability distribution.

This uses gRandom.

Implements JMARKOV::JScatteringModel.

Definition at line 549 of file JScatteringModel.hh.

                                  {
      double l1 = sm1->getScatteringLength() ;
      double l2 = sm2->getScatteringLength() ;
      // probability to scatter with process 1
      double P = l2/(l1+l2) ; 
      if( gRandom->Uniform(0,1)<P ) {
        return sm1->generateDirection() ;
      } else { 
        return sm2->generateDirection() ;
      }
    }
