class AuxDecays.Decay(instate=None, fstates=None, br=0.0)[source]

Bases: object

Main class to store information about a specific decay.

Parameters:
  • motherID – ID for the decaying mother
  • fstateIDs – list of IDs for the daughters
  • br – branching ratio value
compress(ID, IDecays)[source]

Generates a new DecayList() from compressing the ID decays

class AuxDecays.DecayList[source]

Bases: object

Main class to store information about all the decays of a specific species.

Parameters:
  • dlist – List of Decay objects
  • width – Total width
  • Xfraction – fraction of energy injected in the thermal bath
addDecay(decay)[source]
getAllFinalStates()[source]
