static bool	gaussianSmearing (const double mean, const double sigma, double &x)
	It returns true if succeed in drawing a value (x) drawn from a gaussian of specified mean and sigma, false otherwise.
static bool	azimuthalSmearing (const double r, double &vx, double &vy)
	It returns true if it succeed in drawing a rotated 2-vector (vx,vy) of given length r , false otherwise.
Private Member Functions
	Smearing ()
	Pure static class so no default constructor.

Member Function Documentation

static bool Herwig::Smearing::gaussianSmearing	(	const double	mean,
		const double	sigma,
		double &	x
	)		[static]

It returns true if succeed in drawing a value (x) drawn from a gaussian of specified mean and sigma, false otherwise.

Indeed, it generates uncorrelated pairs and throws one of them away.

Smearing& Herwig::Smearing::operator=

(

const Smearing &

x

)

[private]

The assignment operator is private and must never be called.

In fact, it should not even be implemented.
