- VMC geometry
- Common geometry description in simulation and reconstruction (VMC).
(01/03/2005 ) We postpone decision about geometry description.
For now we use description coming from starsim i.e.
starsim -> Mortran geometry description (g-files) -> rz-files -> g2root -> TGeo (VMC) geometry;
(10/11/2006) Done for dead material. Description of detector elements is taken from MySQL DB.
- Geometry/Condition data bases in simulation and reconstruction.
(10/11/2006) Done
- (01/03/2005 ) As the first step convert geometries from (starsim) rz-file to TGeo,
put gGeoManager under TObjectSet with name Geometry and title version
(for example y2003a) and
save them in $STAR/StarDb/VmcGeometry directory as
Geometry.version.root
with version = (year2000,year2001,year2002,year2003,y2003a,y2003b,y2003x,y2004a,y2004b,y2004,y2004x,y2005x).
These geometries can be accessible via St_db_Maker by standard way with time stamp set.
(10/11/2006) Done
- The above geometries allow to use VMC machinery for calculation material parameters for IT(TF).
As an example, estimated SVT weight from simulation a factor of 2 below from real.
(10/11/2006) Done
- (1.4.2005) Add smoother to Sti
The smoother is required to complete Kalman cycle (prediction => fit => smoother) and to create
tool for Sti self consistency check.
The important task is (re)evaluation of errors assigned to hit.
(10/11/2006) Done
- (1.19.2005) (Kalman) Vertex fit
Based on well understood track parameter errors the natural next step is to make vertex fit
based on Kalman filter techniques. The fit should be done for primary and secondary vertexes.

- Clean up old software
Get rid of pams/tpc and pams/globals, their tables, and utilities
server only these packages.
Reassess how much FORTRAN code use tables. Move table definition from
idl to h files.
Get rid of stic
(10/11/2006) has started
- Data model, StEvent (remove dependence on tables, adjust StEvent to
Sti), StMuDst (?)
