Parameters of InDetTrackParticles can be with respect to the vertex
The parameters of InDet::TrackParticle
will be correctly calculated with respect to the primary vertex (identified by xAOD::VxType::PriVtx
). This is mostly relevant for z0
but all parameters are calculated w.r.t. the same vertex.
If a flag flags.InDet.Tracking.perigeeExpression
is set to Vertex
, a temporary InDetTrackParticle
container w.r.t. the beam line is created. This container is then passed to the vertex fitter and vertices are found. Then, the original Trk::Tracks
and the newly found vertex container are passed again to the TrackParticleCreatorTool
.
This will be useful for heavy ion reconstruction, although it's not integrated there yet. Also, it should work in a standard reconstruction as well.
The default output of the reconstruction is unchanged.
