Functions Documentation

function isGenSpecific

inline bool isGenSpecific(
    int pid
)

Determine if the PID is in the generator-specific range.

function isResonance

inline bool isResonance(
    int pid
)

Todo: Also include SUSY, technicolor, etc. etc.? Maybe via a isStandardModel(pid) function, but there are stable BSM particles (in principle)

Determine if the PID is that of an EW scale resonance

function isTransportable

inline bool isTransportable(
    int pid
)

Todo: Should exclude neutrinos/LSP, since the ATLAS G4 interface deletes them immediately?

What about long-lived particles… could be BSM but need to be transported

Check the PID for usability in transport codes like Geant4
