This system of units is a modified version of GEANT4's G4UnitsTest (which is itself a modified version of SystemOfUnits.h)
The basic units are those of the International System:
meter second kilogram ampere degree kelvin the amount of substance (mole) luminous intensity (candela) radian steradian
The SI numerical value of the positron charge is defined here, as it is needed for conversion factor : positron charge = e_SI (coulomb)
But, you shouldn't care what the basic MINOS units are. Instead learn these rules to deal with values that have units:
0) All variables are assumed hold values with Munits already applied. NEVER multiply a variable by an Munit.
1) To store or pass a literal value, ALWAYS multiply by an Munit:
double energy = 1.0*Munits::GeV; obj.SetTimeCut(10.0*Munits:ns); root [1] .x mymacro.C(731*Munits:km)
2) To express a value with a given unit, divide by an Munit. NEVER store the result.
void print_energy(double energy) { cout << "The energy is " << energy/Munits::GeV << " GeV\n"; } //... print_energy(1200*Munits::MeV);
