// GenParticle Data common to all particles of a given PDG id
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Units  ID: defined by PDG group (particles are +ve, antiparticles are -ve) 
//              also consistent with the Pythia definitions
//              See: http://d0lblt.lbl.gov/wwwpdg/mc_numbers.htm
//        charge: fraction of proton charge
//        mass in user defined energy units
//        width:  ( stored as cLifetime = hbar / Width )
//        cLifetime: c*time
//        spin: fraction of photon spin (always a positive number)
//
// Default mass is 0.
// Default cLifetime is -1 which means stable (setting width = 0 gives this)
//     (we define cLifetime = -1 --> width = 0 (i.e stable), 
//                    width = -1 --> cLifetime = 0 (i.e. prompt)  )
// These defaults exist because many very basic MC generators
//     may produce only massless stable particles in the event record.
//
// It is intended that a different ParticleData object is created for each 
//     particle and its anti-particle - useful for CP violation studies.
//
// There are few set methods for this class, there should be no reason
//     to change anything after instantiating. If you need to, then
//     create a new object and kill the old one.
//
// Example: 
//  HepMC::ParticleData* pd_electron = 
//                    new HepMC::ParticleData("electron",11,-1,0.000511,-1,.5);
// A method is provided to allow you to set the lifetime from the
//     width in the constructor
// Example: new HepMC::ParticleData("W+",24,+1,80.396,
//                                  HepMC::clifetime_from_width(2.06),1);
// Example of finding a ParticleData object from its PDG ID 
// in ParticleDataTable pdt:
//        HepMC::ParticleData* electron = pdt.find(11);
// or if you just wanted two know the electron mass, you could do:
//        pdt.find(11)->mass();
