[Castor-users] Scatter & Random Rate Calculation, GATERootToCastor

[Thibaut Merlin]

  Dear George,

GATERootToCastor currently doesn't estimate the scatter and random counts,
but directly compute the rates (if the related options are enabled) from
the coincidences metadata in the ROOT files. So there is no real estimation
methods of these rates. Only the coincidence tree is currently used for
data conversion, hence the hits are not required.

Best regards,
Thibaut
