Hi Rene,
Thanx,but I want to MC-simulate a distribution of hadron showers.Not
visualize it.So, let's say we have a detected shower at some part of the
detector.Unfortunately,our detector (at BNL) can give only the projection
of - let's say - an ellipsoid shower.The shower can be at any angle.So if
I make an assumption that the spatial shape of the shower is an ellipsoid
I have to rotate it randomly (and make a projection of each) to simulate
the randomness of the angular distribution of the showers.So,let's say:
for(int i = 0; i<10000000;i++){
r = gRandom->Rndm();
phi = 2*Pi*gRandom->Rndm();
theta = gRandom->Rndm();
...
// corrigating back for the shape of the shower
...
point[x] = r*Sin(phi)*Cos(theta);
point[y] = ...;
point[z] = ...;
// rotating randomly
TMatrix * m = new TMatrix(3,1,m);
alfa = gRandom->Rndm();
beta = ...;
gamma = ...;
m->Rotate(alfa,beta,gamma);
...
and then project it with let's say the TH3::Project3D() function.
}
I found that the TGeoRotation class gives you rotational transformational
matrices if someone gives the rotational angles as an argument.So,I
thought that with them (and with simple matrix multiplication) one can
easily randomly rotate each point of the simulated shower.
