Last change on this file since 19344 was 17643, checked in by ftemme, 11 years ago
Added a MParameterD for the Crosstalkcoefficient, so that MSimCamera can access the crosstalk coefficient for the calculation of the accoupling.

27// MSimAPD
28//
29// This tasks simulates the individual APDs. Before starting the APD is
30// initialized randomly according to the photon rate hitting the APD. Such
31// it is assumed that the initial condition of the APD is similar to the real
32// one. In this context it is assumed that the events are independent, so
33// that the APD is always in the same condition.
34//
35// For every photon and event the behaviour of the APD is simulated. The
36// output is set as weight to the MPhotonData containers.
37//
38// Remark:
39// - The photon rate used to initialize the APD must match the one used
40// to "fill" the random photons. (FIXME: This should be stored somewhere)
41//
42// Input Containers:
43// fNameGeomCam [MGeomCam]
