Draft: Cleaning up checks on truth particle status
- Wrap xAOD::TruthParticle::status() calls in HepMC::status helper function
- Checks for status == 3 and other non-standard values (WIP)
Most of the remaining ones are checking for status == 3 - should we make a helper function for this one?
Other non-standard status values being used:
- 30 < status < 40 (HadronicOriginClassifier.cxx) - isDirectlyMPIPythia8 ???
- status == 11 (TruthBornLeptonCollectionMaker.cxx) - leptons in sherpa according to the comments
- status == 23 (TruthBornLeptonCollectionMaker.cxx) - leptons in sherpa according to the comments
- status == 20 (TruthCollectionMaker.cxx) - Sherpa - it is "the future" according to the comments.
- status == 155 (CalcTopPartonHistory.cxx) t/tbar quarks from Herwig6???
- status == 11 (CalcTopPartonHistory.cxx) Herwig++ - t/tbar quarks which decay into Wb ???
For these I think we need to make constants in MagicNumbers.h
