ThePEG 2.3.0
Interfaces defined for the ThePEG::EventHandler class.
Brief class description:
This is the base class controlling the generation of the event after the hard sub-process generation. To its help it has a number of step handler objects, most noticeable the CascadeHandler, the HadronizationHandler and the DecayHandler. Derived classes may also make use of the LuminosityFunction to specify the incoming beams, the PartonExtractor to administer the extraction of partons from incoming hadrons, and the Cuts to specify cuts on the primary sub-process.

Name: ConsistencyEpsilon
Type: Parameter

Description:
The maximum fraction of the total invariant mass of a collision that any of the components of the summed momentum is allowed to change during the generation. Used if ConsistencyLevel is switched on.
Default value: 1.49012e-08
Minimum value: 0
Maximum value: 1

Name: ConsistencyLevel
Type: Switch

Description:
Determines how often the event handler should check for charge and energy-momentum conservation.
Registered options:
0(Never)
No consistency checks are made.
1(EveryCollision)
Every collision is checked for consistency.
2(EveryStep)
Every step is checked for consistency.
3(PrintEveryCollision)
Every collision is checked for consistency. If an inconsistency is found, the event is printed to the log file.
4(PrintEveryStep)
Every step is checked for consistency. If an inconsistency is found, the event is printed to the log file.
Default value: 1

Name: WarnIncomplete
Type: Switch

Description:
Emit a warning during the initialization that this EventHandler is incomplete. Should only be manipulated if the object is in fact an incomlete EventHandler and you do not want a warning.
Registered options:
0(No)
This EventHandler is either complete or no warning should be emitted in either case.
1(Yes)
This is an incomplete EventHandler and warning should be emitted.
Default value: 1

Name: PostDecayHandlers
Type: Varying size vector of references to objects of class ThePEG::StepHandler

Description:
A list of handlers to be called after the DecayHandler. If handler objects are specified in a EventHandler and the SubProcessHandler chosen in a given collision also specifies some, the latter will caled first.

Name: PreDecayHandlers
Type: Varying size vector of references to objects of class ThePEG::StepHandler

Description:
A list of handlers to be called before the DecayHandler. If handler objects are specified in a EventHandler and the SubProcessHandler chosen in a given collision also specifies some, the latter will caled first.

Name: PostHadronizationHandlers
Type: Varying size vector of references to objects of class ThePEG::StepHandler

Type: Varying size vector of references to objects of class ThePEG::StepHandler

Description:
A list of handlers to be called before the HadronizationHandler. If handler objects are specified in a EventHandler and the SubProcessHandler chosen in a given collision also specifies some, the latter will caled first.

Name: PostMultipleInteractionHandlers
Type: Varying size vector of references to objects of class ThePEG::StepHandler

Description:
A list of handlers to be called after the MultipleInteractionHandler. If handler objects are specified in a EventHandler and the SubProcessHandler chosen in a given collision also specifies some, the latter will caled first.
