===
## Laura++ v3r2

11th October 2017 Thomas Latham
* Allow the user to specify the randomiser to be used to randomise the initial values of the isobar parameters
- simply use the new static function LauAbsCoeffSet::setRandomiser
- if not specified it defaults to the current use of LauRandom::zeroSeedRandom

12th December 2016 Daniel O'Hanlon
* Efficiency saving from modifying the behaviour of LauIsobarDynamics::calculateAmplitudes, LauIsobarDynamics::resAmp and LauIsobarDynamics::incohResAmp in the case of symmetric DPs
- Previously, there were 2N calls to LauKinematics::flipAndUpdateKinematics for N resonances, now reduced to 2
21st November 2016 John Back
* Added two K-matrix examples for creating pedagogical plots (with associated data files):
- B3piKMatrixPlots for K-matrix elements, propagator, and pole and SVP production terms
- B3piKMatrixMassProj for pole and SVP mass projections generated over the DP

===
## Laura++ v3r1
9th September 2016 Thomas Latham
* Modification of LauFitNtuple to check the size of the covariance matrix wrt known number of parameters and act accordingly:
- If it is empty, just fill a diagonal correlation matrix and issue a warning.
- If it results from a failed first stage of a two-stage fit then the correlation matrix is padded with 1s and 0s for the parameters that were fixed in the first stage.
* Remove the feature that allows parameters to float in first stage of a two-stage fit but to be fixed in second.
* Minor fix to LauAbsCoeffSet: the names of parameters would be mangled if they were the same as the basename, e.g. A1_A would become A1_ while A1_B would be correct.
8th September 2016 Thomas Latham
* Modifications to LauResonanceInfo to allow customisation of which extra parameters are shared between charge conjugate or shared-parameter records.
- Where the parameters are not shared they are independently created instead of being cloned.
* Modification of LauRhoOmegaMix to take advantage of the above to have the magB and phiB parameters independent.
* Addition to LauResonanceMaker of rho(770)_COPY record that is a shared record with rho(770) - this allows the above new feature to be used.
* Minor unrelated improvement to information messages in LauIsobarDynamics.
25th August 2016 John Back
* Modified LauRhoOmegaMix to allow either a RelBW or GS lineshape for the rho, as well as
allowing the option to set the second-order denominator term to be equal to unity.
Also fixed the bug where the spinTerm was not included in the rho-omega amplitude.
Changed the LauAbsResonance enum from RhoOmegaMix to RhoOmegaMix_GS, RhoOmegaMix_RBW,
RhoOmegaMix_GS_1 and RhoOmegaMix_RBW_1, where _1 sets the denominator term to unity and
_GS or _RBW sets the appropriate rho lineshape. The omega is always a RelBW.
* Added to LauAbsResonance: ignoreSpin and ignoreBarrierScaling boolean flags, which ignore
either the spin terms or the barrier scaling factors for the amplitude. The latter does not
turn off the resonance barrier factor for mass-dependent widths
* Added to LauResonanceMaker: getResInfo(resonanceName), which retrieves the resonance information.
This is used to obtain the PDG omega values for initialising LauRhoOmegaMix
* Made LauRelBreitWignerRes ignore momentum-dependent terms for the resonance width if ignoreMomenta is set.
This is used in the LauRhoOmegaMix for the omega lineshape where its width does not depend on momentum
23rd May 2016 John Back
* Added new lineshape model for rho-omega mass mixing, LauRhoOmegaMix.
12th April 2016 Thomas Latham
* Switch to integrating in square DP when narrow resonances are found in m12.
- The integration grid size can be specified by the user
19th January 2016 John Back
* Correct the f(m^2) factor in the denominator of the LauGounarisSakuraiRes
lineshape to use Gamma_0 instead of Gamma(m)
14th January 2016 Thomas Latham
* Documentation improvements
7th December 2015 Thomas Latham
* Resolve bug that meant the order of resonances in LauIsobarDynamics was assumed to match with the order in which the complex coefficients are supplied to the fit model
- The ordering of resonances is defined by LauIsobarDynamics:
- Firstly all coherent resonances in order of addition
- Followed by all incoherent resonances in order of addition
- The complex coefficients are now rearranged to match that order
- Printout of the model summary at the end of initialisation has been enhanced to indicate the ordering
- Doxygen updated to reflect these changes
12th November 2015 Daniel Craik
* Added support for Akima splines and linear interpolation to Lau1DCubicSpline
* LauAbsModIndPartWave, LauModIndPartWaveRealImag and LauModIndPartWaveMagPhase updated to allow choice of spline interpolation method

7th September 2015 Mark Whitehead
* Add the ability to Gaussian constrain parameters via the CoeffSet
- addGaussianConstraint added to LauAbsCoeffSet
12th June 2015 Thomas Latham
* Modifications to Belle-style nonresonant models
- LauBelleNR modified to use pure Legendre polynomials of cos(theta) in the spin term (i.e. to remove the q*p factors)
- New form added to LauBelleSymNR (LauAbsResonance::BelleSymNRNoInter) that removes the interference term between the two DP halves
- The new form also works with non-zero spin (warning added if non-zero spin specified for BelleSymNR and TaylorNR)
8th June 2015 Thomas Latham
* Further work on the blinding mechanism:
- New method added LauParameter::blindParameter that activates the blinding.
- The rest of the framework updated to use another new method LauParameter::unblindedValue in all likelihood calculations etc.
- Example GenFitNoDP updated to include lines to optionally blind the yield parameters.
29th May 2015 Daniel Craik
* Added LauBlind class for blinding and unblinding a value with an offset based on a blinding string
26th May 2015 Daniel Craik

* Added unbinned goodness of fit tests to examples
12th January 2015 Daniel Craik
* Calculate effective masses for virtual resonances above the upper kinematic limit
10th December 2014 Daniel Craik
* Added coefficient sets to extract gamma from a simultaneous fit to CP and nonCP final states,
such as the B0->D_CP K pi and B0->D0bar K pi Dalitz plots, as proposed in Phys. Rev. D79, 051301 (2009)
- LauPolarGammaCPCoeffSet uses the CP parameters r, delta and gamma directly
- LauRealImagGammaCPCoeffSet parameterises CPV as X_CP+/- and Y_CP+/-
- LauCartesianGammaCPCoeffSet parameterises CPV as X_CP, Y_CP DeltaX_CP DeltaY_CP
- Fixed CP parameters are not passed to the fitter so the same coefficient sets can be used for both the
CP and nonCP Dalitz plots
- LauPolarGammaCPCoeffSet allows for a single gamma parameter to be shared between multiple resonances
- LauAbsCoeffSet::adjustName made virtual to allow global variables such as gamma to not receive a prefix

19th June 2015 Thomas Latham
* Factor out the JFit slave code from LauAbsFitModel into a new base class LauSimFitSlave

21st October 2014 Daniel Craik
* Fixed bug in LauIsobarDynamics where multiple incoherent amplitudes led to nonsensical fit fractions
17th October 2014 John Back
* Added the ability to calculate the transition amplitude matrix T in LauKMatrixPropagator,
as well as a few other minor speed-up changes and code checks. Example/PlotKMatrixTAmp.cc
can be used to check the T amplitude variation, phase shift and inelasticity, for a given
K matrix channel, as a function of the invariant mass squared variable s
15th October 2014 Thomas Latham
* Add methods to LauIsobarDynamics to make the integration binning more tunable by the user:
- setNarrowResonanceThreshold - modify the value below which a resonance is considered to be narrow (defaults to 0.02 GeV/c2)

10th October 2014 Thomas Latham
* Add new method to LauResonanceMaker to set whether the radius of a given Blatt-Weisskopf category should be fixed of floated
* Modify the methods of LauResonanceMaker to set the radius value and whether it should be floated so that they work before and after the resonances have been created
9th October 2014 John Back
* Corrected the eta-eta' and 4pi phase space factors in LauKMatrixPropagator,
which is used for the K-matrix amplitude:
- calcEtaEtaPRho() does not include the mass difference term m_eta - m_eta'
following the recommendation in hep-ph/0204328 and from advice from M Pennington
- calcFourPiRho() incorporates a better parameterisation of the double integral of Eq 4 in
hep-ph/0204328 which avoids the exponential increase for small values of s (~< 0.1)
- More detailed comments are provided in the above two functions to explain what is
going on and the reason for the choices made
6th October 2014 Thomas Latham
* Implement the mechanism for floating Blatt-Weisskopf barrier factor radius parameters
30th September 2014 Thomas Latham
* Fix issue in the checks on toy MC generation validity
- in the case of exceeding max iterations it was possible to enter an infinite loop
- the checks now detect all three possible states:
- aSqMaxSet_ is too low (generation is biased) => increase aSqMaxSet_ value
- aSqMaxSet_ is too high => reduce aSqMaxSet_ value to improve efficiency
- aSqMaxSet_ is high (causing low efficiency) but cannot be lowered without biasing => increase iterationsMax_ limit
* Update resonance parameter in LauResonanceMaker to match PDG 2014
* Modify behaviour when TTree objects are saved into files to avoid having multiple cycle numbers present
29th September 2014 Daniel Craik
* Add support for incoherent resonances in the signal model
- LauIsobarDynamics updated to include incoherent terms
- ABC for incoherent resonances, LauAbsIncohRes, added deriving from LauAbsResonance

* Added charged version of the BelleNR resonances to LauResonanceMaker
* Updated parameters in LauConstants to match PDG 2014
14th July 2014 Thomas Latham
* Add intial support for fully-symmetric final states such as B0 -> KS KS KS
- Performs the symmetrisation of the signal model
- Background (and efficiency) histogram classes need some work if the user wants to provide folded histograms
8th July 2014 Daniel Craik
* Add class for model-independent partial wave
- Uses splines to produce a smooth amplitude from a set of magnitude and phase values at given invariant masses
- The individual magnitudes and phases can be floated in the fit
16th June 2014 Thomas Latham
* Allow floating of resonance parameters in simultaneous fits
13th June 2014 Thomas Latham
* Fix bug in LauResonanceInfo cloning method, where the width parameter was given a clone of the mass
10th June 2014 Thomas Latham
* Add new function to allow sharing of resonance parameters between components that are not charged conjugates, e.g. LASS_BW and LASS_NR
9th June 2014 Thomas Latham and Daniel Craik
* Fix bug in the new integration scheme
- Was not accounting for cases where several resonances share a floating parameter
- Meant that the integrals and caches for that resonance were not being updated
* Introduce a change in the implementation of the helicity flip for neutral parent decays
- Prior to this change the helicity was flipped for any neutral resonance in the decay of a neutral particle.
- Now the flip no longer occurs in flavour-specific decays (such as Bs0 -> D0bar K- pi+ or B0 -> K+ pi- pi0) since it is only required in flavour-conjugate modes (such as B0 -> KS pi+ pi-).
- This does not affect any physical results but it does contribute a pi phase flip to some odd-spin resonances (for example K*(892)0 in Bs0->D0barKpi).
- Therefore results are not necessarily comparable between fits run before and after this changeset.
- This change will first be released in v3r0.

23rd April 2014 Thomas Latham
* Address issue of setting values of resonance parameters for all models
- decided to do away with need to have LauIsobarDynamics know everything
- LauIsobarDynamics::addResonance now returns a pointer to LauAbsResonance
- parameters can be changed through LauAbsResonance::setResonanceParameter
- LauIsobarDynamics still knows about Blatt-Weisskopf factors - better to only need to set this once
- Update GenFit3pi example to demonstrate mechanism
22nd April 2014 Thomas Latham
* Allow Gaussian constraints to be added in simultaneous fitting
- constraints will be ignored by the slaves
- those added directly to fit parameters will be propogated to the master and handled there
- those on combinations of parameters should be added in the master process
22nd April 2014 Mark Whitehead
* Update Laura to cope with resonances of spin 4 and spin 5
- Zemach spin terms added to src/LauAbsResonance.cc
- BW barrier factors added to src/LauRelBreitWignerRes.cc
19th April 2014 Daniel Craik
* Add LauWeightedSumEffModel which gives an efficiency model from the weighted sum of several LauEffModel objects.
* Added pABC, LauAbsEffModel, for LauEffModel and LauWeightedSumEffModel.
* Various classes updated to use pointers to LauAbsEffModel instead of LauEffModel.
15th April 2014 Daniel Craik
* Enable LauEfficiencyModel to contain several Lau2DAbsDP objects with the total efficiency calculated as the product.
10th April 2014 Mark Whitehead
* Fix an issue with the likelihood penalty term for Gaussian constraints
- Factor two missing in the denominator
- New penalty term is: ( x-mean )^2 / 2*(width^2)
4th April 2014 Thomas Latham
* Add storage of fit fractions that have not been efficiency corrected

- Only LauLinearPdf used any of them, this has now been updated
10th March 2014 Thomas Latham
(in branch for release in v3r0)
* First attempt at floating resonance parameters (work mostly from Juan)
- Only works for RelBW lineshape
- Can only float mass and width
- Works nicely!
- Still needs much work to generalise and make more efficient
===
## Laura++ v2r0
8th March 2014 Thomas Latham
* Some additional functionality for the CoeffSet classes:
- allow the parameter values to be set (optionally setting the initial and generated values as well)
- allow the parameters to be set to float or to be fixed in the fit
These are needed when cloning but wanting some of the parameters to have different values and/or floating behaviour from the cloned set.
* Improve the printout of the setting of the coefficient values in the fit models and the creation of resonances
* Add LauFlatNR for the unform NR model - ends its rather strange special treatment
* Fix bug setting resAmpInt to 0 for LauPolNR
* Many other improvements to the info/warning/error printouts
* Modify GenFitBelleCPKpipi example to demonstrate cloning in action
* Add -Werror to compiler flags (treats warnings as errors)
5th March 2014 Thomas Latham
* Some improvements to LauPolNR to speed up amplitude calculation
2nd March 2014 Thomas Latham
* A number of updates to the CoeffSet classes:
- allow specification of the basename just after construction (before being given to the fit model)
- allow configuration of the parameter fit ranges (through static methods of base class)
- more adaptable cloning of the parameters (e.g. can only clone phase but allow magnitude to float independently)
- allow CP-violating parameters to be second-stage in Belle and CLEO formats
* Some improvements to the Doxygen and runtime information printouts
20th February 2014 Louis Henry
* Add LauPolNR - class for modelling the nonresonant contribution based on BaBar 3K model (arXiv:1201.5897)

resInfo_.push_back( neutral );
resInfo_.push_back( positve );
resInfo_.push_back( negatve );
// The following two lines of code are placed here in order to allow the following, rather niche, scenario:
// The LauRhoOmegaMix code permits (through the use of the optional independentPar argument of LauResonanceInfo::addExtraParameter) the magnitude and phase of the rho/omega mixing to potentially differ between the decay of the parent particle to rho0 X and the parent antiparticle to rho0 Xbar.
// This can be acheived by using the rho0(770) record in one case and the rho0(770)_COPY record in the other.
// Check whether any BW factors have been created and bail out if so
