Detailed Description

SoftRemnantHandler inherits from the RemnantHandler and implements the generation of a single collinear RemnantParticle when anything is extracted from anything else.

Such a RemnantParticle needs to be decayed by a special RemnantDecayer and the SoftRemnantHandler needs to be assign such a decayer to work properly.

virtual Lorentz5Momentum ThePEG::SoftRemnantHandler::generate	(	PartonBinInstance &	pb,
		const double *	r,
		Energy2	scale,
		const LorentzMomentum &	p
	)			const `[virtual]`

Generate momenta.

Generates the momenta of the extracted parton in the particle cms (but with the parton $x$ still the positive light-cone fraction) as given by the last argument, p. If the particle is space-like the positive and negative light-cone momenta are $\sqrt{-m^2}$ and $-sqrt{-m^2}$ respectively. If the scale is negative, it means that the doScale in the previous call to nDim() was true, otherwise the given scale should be the virtuality of the extracted parton. Generated quantities which are not returned in the momentum may be saved in the PartonBin, pb, for later use. In particular, if the nDim() random numbers, r, are not enough to generate with weight one, the resulting weight should be stored with the remnantWeight() method of the parton bin.

Implements ThePEG::RemnantHandler.

virtual Lorentz5Momentum ThePEG::SoftRemnantHandler::generate	(	PartonBinInstance &	pb,
		const double *	r,
		Energy2	scale,
		Energy2	shat,
		const LorentzMomentum &	parent
	)			const `[virtual]`

Generate the momentum of the extracted parton with the parent momentum given by the last argument.

If the scale is negative, it means that the doScale in the previous call to nDim() was true, otherwise the given scale should be the virtuality of the extracted parton. shat is the total invariant mass squared of the hard sub-system produced by the extracted parton and the primary parton entering from the other side. Generated quantities which are not returned in the momentum may be saved in the PartonBinInstance, pb, for later use. In particular, if the nDim() random numbers, r, are not enough to generate with weight one, the resulting weight should be stored with the remnantWeight() method of the parton bin.

Implements ThePEG::RemnantHandler.

virtual bool ThePEG::SoftRemnantHandler::recreateRemnants	(	PartonBinInstance &	pb,
		tPPtr	oldp,
		tPPtr	newp,
		double	newl,
		Energy2	scale,
		const LorentzMomentum &	p,
		const PVector &	prev = `PVector()`
	)			const `[virtual]`

Redo the remnant generation for the given particle bin, pb.

If oldp is non-null it corresponds to the previously extracted parton which should be replaced by newp. If oldp is null it means newp should be extracted in addition to the previously extracted ones available in prev.

Returns:: false if the generation failed.

Reimplemented from ThePEG::RemnantHandler.

virtual bool ThePEG::SoftRemnantHandler::recreateRemnants	(	PartonBinInstance &	pb,
		tPPtr	oldp,
		tPPtr	newp,
		double	newl,
		Energy2	scale,
		Energy2	shat,
		const LorentzMomentum &	p,
		const PVector &	prev = `PVector()`
	)			const `[virtual]`

Redo the remnant generation for the given particle bin, pb.

If oldp is non-null it corresponds to the previously extracted parton which should be replaced by newp. If oldp is null it means newp should be extracted in addition to the previously extracted ones available in prev. In either case shat is the total invariant mass squared of the hard sub-system produced by the extracted parton and the primary parton entering from the other side.

Returns:: false if the generation failed.

Reimplemented from ThePEG::RemnantHandler.

Parameters:

	is	the persistent input stream read from.
	version	the version number of the object when written.

Reimplemented from ThePEG::RemnantHandler.

virtual IBPtr ThePEG::SoftRemnantHandler::clone ( ) const [protected, virtual]

Returns:: a pointer to the new object.

Implements ThePEG::InterfacedBase.
