Detailed Description

Class for measurements in wire detectors (Straw tubes and drift chambers) which do not measure the coordinate along the wire.

Author: Tobias Schlüter

This is similar to WireMeasurement, but since WireMeasurement stores a 7x7 covariance matrix for what is a one-dimensional measurement, this class is preferable. Protected inheritance of rawHitCoords_ and rawHitCov_ makes it impossible to rewrite WireMeasurement, as subclasses will access these members.

This hit class is not valid for arbitrary choices of plane orientation: to use it you MUST choose a plane described by u and v axes with v coincident with the wire (and u orthogonal to it, obviously). The hit will be described by 7 coordinates: w_x1, w_y1, w_z1, w_x2, w_y2, w_z2, rdrift where w_ji (with j = x, y, z and i = 1, 2) are the wire extremities coordinates; rdrift = distance from the wire (u coordinate in the plane)

◆ constructHMatrix()

const AbsHMatrix * constructHMatrix ( const AbsTrackRep * ) const

overridevirtual

Returns a new AbsHMatrix object.

Caller must take ownership.

Implements AbsMeasurement.

◆ constructMeasurementsOnPlane()

std::vector< MeasurementOnPlane * > constructMeasurementsOnPlane ( const StateOnPlane & state ) const

overridevirtual

Hits with a small drift distance get a higher weight, whereas hits with big drift distances become weighted down.

When these initial weights are used by the DAF, the smoothed track will be closer to the real trajectory than if both sides are weighted with 0.5 regardless of the drift distance. This helps a lot when resolving l/r ambiguities with the DAF. The idea is that for the first iteration of the DAF, the wire positions are taken. For small drift radii, the wire position does not bend the fit away from the trajectory, whereas the wire position for hits with large drift radii is further away from the trajectory and will therefore bias the fit if not weighted down.

Implements AbsMeasurement.

◆ constructPlane()

SharedPlanePtr constructPlane ( const StateOnPlane & state ) const

overridevirtual

Construct (virtual) detector plane (use state's AbsTrackRep).

It's possible to make corrections to the plane here. The state should be defined somewhere near the measurement. For virtual planes, the state will be extrapolated to the POCA to point (SpacepointMeasurement) or line (WireMeasurement), and from this info the plane will be constructed.

Implements AbsMeasurement.

◆ setLeftRightResolution()

void setLeftRightResolution ( int lr )

select how to resolve the left/right ambiguity: -1: negative (left) side on vector (wire direction) x (track direction) 0: mirrors enter with same weight, DAF will decide.

1: positive (right) side on vector (wire direction) x (track direction) where the wire direction is pointing from endPoint1 to endPoint2

Definition at line 152 of file WireMeasurementNew.cc.

◆ setMaxDistance()

void setMaxDistance ( double d )

inline

Set maximum drift distance.

This is used to calculate the start weights of the two measurementsOnPlane.
