+This package is typically used as a dependency for `uproot <https://github.com/scikit-hep/uproot>`__, to define methods on the classes that are automatically generated from ROOT files. This includes histograms (TH*) and physics objects like TLorentzVectors. The reason it's a separate library is so that we can add physics-specific functionality on a shorter timescale than we can update uproot itself, which is purely an I/O package.
+
+Occasionally, this library is used without uproot, as a way to make arrays of TLorentzVectors.
