iPatFitter - Downgrade WARNING deposit outside calorimeter

Johannes Junggeburth requested to merge (removed):ATLASRECTS-3913 into master

Hi everybody,

I totally forgot about this ticket regarding the WARNING

fail fit as CaloDeposit outside calo volume

I investigated its circumstances and I verified that the inputs fed into the fit are actually sane and then just by accident the scatters are pulled out of the calorimeter during the fit procedure. As a way out, I only see that there are two possible solutions:

  • Add penalty term to the fit to prevent the fit from pulling the deposit outside the calorimeter. But that's not an easy task
  • Given that these cases rarely occur, just downgrade the WARNING and kill the track silently.

I've chosen this one. Adding: @swatman, @wleight for information.

Tagging @emoyse to decide whether this MR should be swept into 22.0-mc20.

Closes ATLASRECTS-3913
