About SAETASA SAETA (SmAllest sEt of daTA) is the basic unit of information

in the timtrack algorithm and in the TRASGOs concept

A SAETA contains 6 parameters defining a charged particle trackIn a cartesian coordinate system:

- X0 and Y0: 2 coordinates at a reference plane- X’ and Y’ : 2 projected slopes in planes x-z and y-z- T0 : The time at the reference plane respect a reference time- V : The velocity

Saeta: s = (X0,X’,Y0,Y’,T0,V)


About SAETAS

From the mathematical point of view will be better to use:

Saeta: s = (X0,X’,Y0,Y’,T0,1/Vz)

where:

V = Vz · Sqrt(1+X’2+Y’2)

About timtrack

TimTrack is the algorithm developed to estimate SAETAS1. It is based on a Least Squares Method (LSM)2. It works directly with the primary data provided by detectors:

- Coordinates: - Times: it is assumed that:

all times are refered to a common t=0(all detector are WELL synchronized)

3. It lets free the six elements of a saeta:(X0, X’, Y0, Y’, T0 and 1/Vz)

About timtrack

Comments

- The method can be easily extended when there are correlations between some of the measurements (e.G.: time readouts)

- Only two planes of strip-like detectors are enough to provide unambiguously the 6 parameters of a saeta

- The solution has a matrix form: It’s very easy and fast of implementing on computers

-There are many detector layouts with a K matrix having the same structure (see next examples)

Comments

- The “problem” of the method is that there is an inversion of a matrix. Sometimes it may give problems (when the matrix is not well conditioned) but there are a lot of numerical methods to do it

(And it has to be done only once)

About timtrackComments and Summary

- timtrack seems to offer a promising alternative for the tracking of charge particles in Drift Chambers

- It needs only 3 layers to define a saeta (6 parameters) candidate- It works in the coordinate-times space making hit finding quite easy: once

several layers define a candidate it is easy to extrapolate the candidate to another layer and to look for a signal in a given time window

- Putting constraints in the model is very easy; for instance: vertex condition (it reduces the minimum number of planes to 2)

- Time and velocity have big incertitudes but they are highly correlated with other parameters

- With fixed time and velocity, a reduced saeta (4 params.) can be built every two planes allowing to analyze magnetic fields effect

- With timtrack joined fit with several detectors families is possible. E.g. MDCsand RPCsWall, MDCs and RICH….


The END

Thanks!
