Functions
B2Vector3D	poca (B2Vector3D const &trackPos, B2Vector3D const &trackP, B2Vector3D const &vtxPos)

B2Vector3D	trackToVtxVec (B2Vector3D const &trackPos, B2Vector3D const &trackP, B2Vector3D const &vtxPos)
	Returns the 3D vector between a vertex and a track's point of closest approach to that vertex.
double	trackToVtxDist (B2Vector3D const &trackPos, B2Vector3D const &trackP, B2Vector3D const &vtxPos)
	Returns the distance between a vertex and a track's point of closest approach to that vertex.
TMatrixDSym	trackToVtxCovmat (B2Vector3D const &trackP, TMatrixDSym const &trackPosCovMat, TMatrixDSym const &vtxPosCovMat)

Detailed Description

This namespace contains a collection of function that are useful to compute distances between tracks and vertices.

All tracks are assumed to be straight in the current implementation.
