G4VTrajectory

This class is the abstract base class which represents a trajectory of a particle tracked.
Its concrete class includes information of

  • 1) List of trajectory points which compose the trajectory,
  • 2) static information of particle which generated the trajectory,
  • 3) trackID and parent particle ID of the trajectory,
