  /// @brief Calculate the hemisphere masses and broadenings.
  ///
  /// Calculate the hemisphere masses and broadenings, with event hemispheres
  /// defined by the plane normal to the thrust vector, \f$ \vec{n}_\mathrm{T} \f$.
  ///
  /// The "high" hemisphere mass,
  /// \f$ M^2_\mathrm{high} / E^2_\mathrm{vis} \f$, is defined as
  /// \f[
  /// \frac{M^2_\mathrm{high}}{E^2_\mathrm{vis}} =
  /// \frac{1}{E^2_\mathrm{vis}} \max
  /// \left(
  /// \left| \sum_{\vec{p}_k \cdot \vec{n}_\mathrm{T} > 0} p_k \right|^2 ,
  /// \left| \sum_{\vec{p}_k \cdot \vec{n}_\mathrm{T} < 0} p_k \right|^2
  /// \right)
  /// \f]
  /// and the corresponding "low" hemisphere mass,
  /// \f$ M^2_\mathrm{low} / E^2_\mathrm{vis} \f$,
  /// is the sum of momentum vectors in the opposite hemisphere, i.e.
  /// \f$ \max \rightarrow \min \f$ in the formula above.
  ///
  /// Finally, we define a hemisphere mass difference:
  /// \f[
  /// \frac{M^2_\mathrm{diff} }{ E^2_\mathrm{vis}} =
  /// \frac{ M^2_\mathrm{high} - M^2_\mathrm{low} }{ E^2_\mathrm{vis}} .
  /// \f]
  ///
  /// Similarly to the masses, we also define hemisphere broadenings, using the
  /// momenta transverse to the thrust axis:
  /// \f[
  /// B_\pm =
  /// \frac{
  ///   \sum{\pm \vec{p}_i \cdot \vec{n}_\mathrm{T} > 0}
  ///   |\vec{p}_i \times \vec{n}_\mathrm{T} |
  /// }{
  ///   2 \sum_i | \vec{p}_i |
  /// }
  /// \f]
  /// and then a set of the broadening maximum, minimum, sum and difference as follows:
  /// \f[ B_\mathrm{max}  = \max(B_+, B_-) \f]
  /// \f[ B_\mathrm{min}  = \min(B_+, B_-) \f]
  /// \f[ B_\mathrm{sum}  = B_+ + B_- \f]
  /// \f[ B_\mathrm{diff} = |B_+ - B_-| \f]
  ///
  /// Internally, this projection uses a Thrust or Sphericity projection to
  /// determine the hemisphere orientation.
