Detailed Description

Implementation of the quasi-elastic scattering formula for production of particles with different masses than the target.

References:\n Weak Interactions at High Energies

A. Pais, Annals of Physics 63, 361-392 (1971) Implemented here is equation 2.34 of the Pais paper, but ignoring lepton mass terms. This equation is given also as Equation 3.37 in the Llewellyn-Smith paper, though this paper uses slightly different notation than that used in the Pais paper, and introduces a small error in the kinematic coefficient of the w2 term. The notation here by and large follows that of the Llewelyn-Smith paper.

Configure() [1/2]

void PaisQELLambdaPXSec::Configure ( const Registry & config )

virtual

Configure the algorithm with an external registry The registry is merged with the top level registry if it is owned, Otherwise a copy of it is added with the highest priority

Configure() [2/2]

void PaisQELLambdaPXSec::Configure ( string config )

virtual

Configure the algorithm from the AlgoConfigPool based on param_set string given in input An algorithm contains a vector of registries coming from different xml configuration files, which are loaded according a very precise prioriy This methods will load a number registries in order of priority: 1) "Tunable" parameter set from CommonParametes. This is loaded with the highest prioriry and it is designed to be used for tuning procedure Usage not expected from the user. 2) For every string defined in "CommonParame" the corresponding parameter set will be loaded from CommonParameter.xml 3) parameter set specified by the config string and defined in the xml file of the algorithm 4) if config is not "Default" also the Default parameter set from the same xml file will be loaded Effectively this avoids the repetion of a parameter when it is not changed in the requested configuration
