Detailed Description

This class forms clusters from the partons produced in the Shower.

Author
Philip Stephens
Alberto Ribon

This class scans through the particles in the event and produces a collection of clusters, defined as a colour-singlet combinations of colour-connected particles. There are no assumptions about the type (i.e. quark or diquark) or number of the component particles of the cluster; however, most of the time clusters are formed by quark-antiquark pairs. In special situations, such as baryon-violating processes in R-nonconserved Susy, three quarks (or three antiquarks) could form a cluster. Because at the moment we don't know how to handle 3-component clusters (i.e. how to fission heavy ones, or how to decay clusters), we provide also a separate method, reduceToTwoComponents, which does the job of redefining these 3-component clusters as "normal" 2-component ones, simply by randomly considering two (anti-) quarks as a (anti-) diquark. Notice that if in the future the method reduceToTwoComponents is modified or even eliminated, the main method for finding clusters, formClusters, will not need any change.

Member Function Documentation

◆ clone()

virtual IBPtr Herwig::ClusterFinder::clone ( ) const
protectedvirtual

Make a simple clone of this object.

Returns
a pointer to the new object.

Implements ThePEG::InterfacedBase.

◆ formClusters()

ClusterVector Herwig::ClusterFinder::formClusters ( const PVector partons)

This routine forms the clusters of the event.

Form clusters starting from the list of partons given. It also checks if the cluster is a beam cluster, that is if at least one of its components is a beam remnant.

◆ fullclone()

virtual IBPtr Herwig::ClusterFinder::fullclone ( ) const
protectedvirtual

Make a clone of this object, possibly modifying the cloned object to make it sane.

Returns
a pointer to the new object.

Reimplemented from ThePEG::InterfacedBase.

◆ persistentInput()

void Herwig::ClusterFinder::persistentInput ( PersistentIStream is,
int  version 
)

Function used to read in object persistently.

Parameters
isthe persistent input stream read from.
versionthe version number of the object when written.

◆ persistentOutput()

void Herwig::ClusterFinder::persistentOutput ( PersistentOStream os) const

Function used to write out object persistently.

Parameters
osthe persistent output stream written to.

◆ reduceToTwoComponents()

void Herwig::ClusterFinder::reduceToTwoComponents ( ClusterVector )

Reduces three component clusters into two components.

For the eventual clusters that have three components (quark, quark, quark) or (antiquark, antiquark, antiquark), it redefines them as "normal" clusters with two components: (quark,diquark) or (antiquark,antidiquark), by a random drawing. This could be eliminated or changed in the future.
