ParticleCombiner happily duplicates particle candidates when using cc on particle that is its own antiparticle
Example:
jpsis = ParticleCombiner(
Inputs=[muons, muons],
DecayDescriptor="[J/psi(1S) -> mu+ mu-]cc",
CombinationCut=combination_code,
CompositeCut=vertex_code,
name="Jpsi_Combiner")
This always creates two candidates out of tracks/vertices passing the selection. For these kind of particles the parsing should either emit a warning or ignore the cc
.
RTA-DPA general meeting from 16.12.2022 favours ignoring the cc
in these cases.
