pure virtual

Interface method for generating assignment candidates for the material interaction assignment to surfaces or volumes.

Parameters

gctx	is the geometry context
mctx	is the magnetic field context
position	is the position of the initial ray
direction	is the direction of initial ray

Returns

a vector of Surface Assignments and Volume Assignments

Implemented in Acts::IntersectionMaterialAssigner, and Acts::PropagatorMaterialAssigner< propagator_t >.
