namespace KalmanVertexUpdater

Functions

template<typename input_track_t>
void updatePosition(const Acts::Vertex<input_track_t> &vtx, const Acts::LinearizedTrack &linTrack, double trackWeight, int sign, MatrixCache &matrixCache)

Updates vertex position.

Parameters
  • vtx – Old vertex

  • linTrack – Linearized version of track to be added or removed

  • trackWeight – Track weight

  • sign – +1 (add track) or -1 (remove track)

  • matrixCache[out] A cache to store matrix information

template<typename input_track_t>
void updateVertexWithTrack(Vertex<input_track_t> &vtx, TrackAtVertex<input_track_t> &trk)

Updates vertex with knowledge of new track.

Note

KalmanVertexUpdater updates the vertex w.r.t. the newly given track, but does NOT add the track to the TrackAtVertex list. Has to be done manually after calling this method

Parameters
  • vtx – Vertex to be updated

  • trk – Track to be used for updating the vertex

struct MatrixCache
