[Rivet] Rivet Query

[Debarati Roy]

Hi Andy,
            That is nice. 


Thanks,
Debarati

Hi Debarati,

I will see if I can provide a calc() method on Hemispheres which will
accept a vector of FourMomentum. You could that way assemble whatever
you wanted as the input, with z components as original or zeroed. I'll
let you know how that goes.

I'll also look into providing an M2sum method.
