HFT-HLT-CA

HFT-CA tracker standalone version
codes needed :
  • StIstFastSimMaker from offline/hft
  • StPxlSimMaker
  • SsdFastSimMaker + StSstDbMaker
  • StCAMaker : simple maker to write .data files (reco input for CA)
  • StBFChain for chain options
  • macro doGeantTracks.C : macro to loop over the .fz file (MC input for CA)
Main change : /pams/sim/g2t/g2t_pix.F and /pams/g2t/g2t_ist.F are now saving the hits in local coordinates. However CA needs the positions of the MC hits. So I modified the these fortran file (local pams) and also needed to modify the Fast simulators accordingly

setup :
  • MC and BFC chain : DEV
  • to run CA-standalone : root 5.34/10 (for Vc libs., mine is Vc-0.6.1, need to update to 5.34/18 for Vc-0.7.3) and HFT-CA version 17400 (got it from Igor), via :
svn co -r 17400 https://subversion.gsi.de/fairroot/cbmroot/development/ikulakov/UniCA_STAR_HFT
