Call: DRIFT_INFORMATION
Contains, on return, the charge of the last particle that has
been drifted.
Contains, on return, the total drift time in microsec of the
last drift line that has been computed.
The read-out group number of the electrode that was hit by the
last drift line.
Read-out group numbers are assigned by the SELECT
statement.
Contains, on return, one of the following strings:
particle
| Meaning
|
electron
| An electron or a positron has been drifted
|
ion
| An ion with charge +1 or -1 has been drifted
|
vacuum
| An electron has been drifted in vacuum
|
Contains on return the length of the current drift line,
estimated as the sum of the linear distances between the
successive steps of the drift line.
The path is expressed in cm.
This argument contains on return the numeric status code
for the last drift line.
The numeric status code is explained in the introduction of
the drift section, under the status
header.
This argument contains on return a string with the status
of the last drift line.
The status strings are explained in the introduction of the
drift section, under the status
header.
Contains on return the number of steps in the last drift
line that has been computed.
Contains on return a coordinate of the starting or the
end point of the current drift line.
The internal coordinate system is used - for Cartesian cells,
this system coincides with the user coordinates, for polar
cells, the INTERNAL_TO_POLAR procedure can be
used to convert the coordinates.
