A Common Tracking Software (ACTS) Project
This library is based on the track reconstruction software developed by the ATLAS Collaboration.
The main philosophy is to provide high-level track reconstruction modules that can be specified for detector technologies by simple extension.
- Event Data Model (EDM)
- Geometry
- Track Extrapolation
- Track Fitting
A short motivation for this project can be found at Motivation for a common Tracking Project.
