0009   \brief    Analysis-level class for reconstructed particles
0010
0011    PFParticle is the equivalent of reco::PFCandidate in the PAT namespace,
0012    to be used in the analysis. All the PFCandidates that are not used as
0013    isolated leptons or photons, or inside jets, end up as pat::PFParticles.
