Detailed Description

Type-safe particle identifier.

The Particle Data Group specifies a coding to uniquely identify standard-model particle types in "Monte Carlo Particle Numbering Scheme" section of (pdg). These coded identifiers should generally not be treated like numbers: this class prevents unintentional arithmetic and conversion.

PDG numbers should only be used in host setup code (they should be converted to ParticleId for use during runtime).

The documentation for this class was generated from the following file:

PDGNumber.hh
