Hi Michael,

    That looks approximately right. You could make a lorentz vector for 
the electron in the FT then subtract this from the electron beam lorentz 
vector. This way you also get linear polarisation plane, Q2 etc I am not 
sure if it makes a big difference on the missing mass or not, but is 
what I do.

   I just use the FT particle from the REC::Particle bank. You should be 
aware that the FT particles are already part of this array in case you 
use them twice.

If you use FT_particles it should probably look more like

TLorentzVector eBeam(0.0,0.0,6.423,6.423);

TLorentzVector FTe(ftCx*ftEnergy, ftCy*ftEnergy, ftCz*ftEnergy, ftEnergy);

TLorentzVector gamma=eBeam-FTe;


If you use REC::Particle, you also need to loop over REC::ForwardTagger 
and match the pindex to the REC::Particle array index to identify the FT 
entries.

Do you set the mass of the proton to the PDG mass or just use the energy 
and momentum from REC::Particle ? I guess this could give an offset of 
0.1 in MM^2 (if you do the latter).


Cheers

Derek
