Documentation

Introduction to PIXLRec
Input banks: the steering of the program is done through the standardized input bank structure. Thereafter only the specific features for PIXLRec are described. More general documentation can be found here .
- Tree structure of input banks
- Seed banks: By design, PIXLRec needs no seed to perform track-finding. The standard seed bank scheme is implemented, but only the Type=0 seed (whole SCT) and the Type=6 (user seed) can currently be used.
- Steering parameters
- Hyper-Planes
Output banks: once pattern-recognition has been performed for an event, reconstructed tracks are stored in these banks.
- Tree structure of output banks
- Bank descriptions: PIXL , ROAD , TRAK , TFIT , HITI , MAPS (not standard).
