The tracking library comes with a project directory demo which holds the MATHUSLA Test Stand Prototype tracking code (see demo/prototype). More projects to be added soon.
Tracking Script
The tracking script is a configuration file which allows the user to specify details of the tracking algorithm. Here is a list of allowed keys and their associated value types.
| Key | Value Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
verbose-output |
boolean | type of output to terminal |
draw-events |
boolean | type of event display mode |
geometry-file |
file path | path to GDML geometry file |
geometry-map-file |
file path | path to geometry map |
geometry-default-time-error |
positive real |
default time resolution of detector volumes |
statistics-directory |
directory path | path to output statistics |
statistics-file-prefix |
prefix string | prefix name for output file |
statistics-file-extension |
extension string | extension to file (or filetype) |
data-directory |
directory path | path to ROOT data to be processed |
data-file-extension |
extension string | extension to file (or filetype) |
data-position-keys |
string for each of R4 | data key read-in for position |
data-position-error-keys |
string for each of R4 | data key read-in for position error |
data-detector-key |
string | data key read-in for detector |
data-track-id-key |
string | data key read-in for track id |
data-parent-id-key |
string | data key read-in for parent id |
data-momentum-keys |
string for each of R4 | data key read-in for momentum |
time-smearing |
boolean | mode for smearing time input on resolution |
layer-axis |
R3 coordinate | direction for track parameterization |
layer-depth |
positive real |
layer size for geometry approximation |
line-width |
positive real |
tolerance for line approximation |
seed-size |
positive integer |
number of points per seed |
event-density-limit |
positive real < 1 |
density limit before event is dropped |
Building
The tracker comes with a simple build script called install which allows for build customization of the tracking library.
Here is a list of useful command line options:
| Action | Options for ./install |
|---|---|
| Build Only | none |
| Build and Auto Run | --run (see below) |
| Clean CMake Build | --cmake --clean |
| More Options | --help |
After a successful run of ./install, the entire tracking library is built and all of the demo projects are installed. The build directory is created which stores all of the binaries and libraries associated with the tracker.
At the moment the tracking library only comes with one complete "project tracker" so running ./install --run will automatically run the prototype executable from build/demo/. Here is a list of command line options that the Prototype uses:
| Action | Short Options | Long Options |
|---|---|---|
| Geometry File | -g <filepath> |
--geometry=<filepath> |
| Detector Map | -m <filepath> |
--map=<filepath> |
| ROOT Data Directory | -d <directory> |
--data=<directory> |
| Custom Tracking Script | -s <file> |
--script=<file> |
| Quiet Mode | -q |
--quiet |
| Help | -h |
--help |
The tracking script can provide the all of the detail above to the tracker and will eventually replace all command line arguments.
