This method returns a std::unique_ptr of the TrackingGeometry from the World DD4hep DetElement.

Attention: The default thickness should be set thin enough that no touching or overlapping with the next layer can happen.

Note

Possible binningtypes:

arbitrary - of the sizes if the surfaces and the distance in between vary. This mode finds out the bin boundaries by scanning through the surfaces.
equidistant - if the sensitive surfaces are placed equidistantly

Note

equidistant binningtype is recommended because it is faster not only while building the geometry but also for look up during the extrapolation

Note

Layers containing surfaces per default are not allowed to be attached to each other (navigation will fail at this point). However, to allow material layers (not containing surfaces) to be attached to each other, this default thickness is needed. In this way, the layer will be thin (with space to the next layer), but the material will have the’real’ thickness.

Parameters

worldDetElement – [in] the DD4hep DetElement of the world
logger – [in] A logger instance geometry building
bTypePhi – [in] is how the sensitive surfaces (modules) should be binned in a layer in phi direction.
bTypeR – [in] is how the sensitive surfaces (modules) should be binned in a layer in r direction
bTypeZ – [in] is how the sensitive surfaces (modules) should be binned in a layer in z direction
layerEnvelopeR – [in] the tolerance added to the geometrical extension in r of the layers contained to build the volume envelope around
layerEnvelopeZ – [in] the tolerance added to the geometrical extension in z of the layers contained to build the volume envelope around
defaultLayerThickness – [in] In case no surfaces (to be contained by the layer) are handed over, the layer thickness will be set to this value
sortSubDetectors – [in] std::function which should be used in order to sort all sub detectors (=all Detelements collected by the method collectSubDetectors() ) from bottom to top to ensure correct wrapping of the volumes, which is needed for navigation. Therefore the different hierarchies need to be sorted ascending. The default is sorting by ID.
gctx – The geometry context to use
matDecorator – is the material decorator that loads material maps
geometryIdentifierHook – Hook to apply to surfaces during geometry closure.

Throws

std::logic_error – if an error in the translation occurs

Pre

Before using this method make sure, that the preconditions described in DD4hepPlugins are met.

Returns

std::unique_ptr to the full TrackingGeometry

The Tracking geometry needs to be built from bottom to top to ensure Navigation. Therefore the different hierarchies need to be sorted ascending. Per default the sub detectors are sorted by the id of their dd4hep::DetElement. In case another sorting needs to be applied, the users can provide their own function

template<typename spacepoint_iterator_t> std::optional<BoundVector> estimateTrackParamsFromSeed(const GeometryContext &gctx, spacepoint_iterator_t spBegin, spacepoint_iterator_t spEnd, const Surface &surface, const Vector3 &bField, ActsScalar bFieldMin, const Acts::Logger &logger = getDummyLogger(), ActsScalar mass = 139.57018 * UnitConstants::MeV)

Estimate the full track parameters from three space points.

This method is based on the conformal map transformation. It estimates the full bound track parameters, i.e. (loc0, loc1, phi, theta, q/p, t) at the bottom space point. The bottom space is assumed to be the first element in the range defined by the iterators. It must lie on the surface provided for the representation of the bound track parameters. The magnetic field (which might be along any direction) is also necessary for the momentum estimation.

It resembles the method used in ATLAS for the track parameters estimated from seed, i.e. the function InDet::SiTrackMaker_xk::getAtaPlane here: https://acode-browser.usatlas.bnl.gov/lxr/source/athena/InnerDetector/InDetRecTools/SiTrackMakerTool_xk/src/SiTrackMaker_xk.cxx

Template Parameters

spacepoint_iterator_t – The type of space point iterator

Parameters

gctx – is the geometry context
spBegin – is the begin iterator for the space points
spEnd – is the end iterator for the space points
surface – is the surface of the bottom space point. The estimated bound track parameters will be represented also at this surface
bField – is the magnetic field vector
bFieldMin – is the minimum magnetic field required to trigger the estimation of q/pt
logger – A logger instance
mass – is the estimated particle mass

Returns

optional bound parameters

Estimate the track parameters on the xy plane from at least three space points.

It assumes the trajectory projection on the xy plane is a circle, i.e. the magnetic field is along global z-axis.

The method is based on V. Karimaki NIM A305 (1991) 187-191: https://doi.org/10.1016/0168-9002(91)90533-V

no weights are used in Karimaki’s fit; d0 is the distance of the point of closest approach to the origin, 1/R is the curvature, phi is the angle of the direction propagation (counter clockwise as positive) at the point of cloest approach.

Template Parameters

spacepoint_iterator_t – The type of space point iterator

Parameters

template<typename T, size_t N, class Point1, class Point2 = Point1, class Point3 = Point2, typename = std::enable_if_t<detail::can_interpolate<Point1, Point2, Point3, T>::value>> inline T interpolate(const Point1 &position, const Point2 &lowerCorner, const Point3 &upperCorner, const std::array<T, N> &values)

performs linear interpolation inside a hyper box

Note

Given U and V of value type T as well as two double a and b, then the following must be a valid expression a * U + b * V yielding an object which is (implicitly) convertible to T.
All Point types must represent d-dimensional positions and support coordinate access using operator[] which should return a double (or a value which is implicitly convertible). Coordinate indices must start at 0.
N is the number of hyper box corners which is \(2^d\) where \(d\) is the dimensionality of the hyper box. The dimensionality must be consistent with the provided Point types.
Definition of the canonical order for sorting the field values: The hyper box corners are numbered according to the following scheme. Each corner is defined by the set of lower/upper boundary limits in each dimension i. This can be represented by a binary code (from left to right) where a 0 stands for a lower bound along this axis and a 1
stand for the upper bound along this axis. The left most bit corresponds to the first dimension and the bits to the left correspond to the 2nd, 3rd… dimension. The binary code can be interpreted as integer which gives the number of the corresponding hyper box corner. The field values are ordered according to ascending hyper box corner numbers.

As an example assume we have a 3D box with
lowerCorner = (1,2,3) and upperCorner = (4,5,6). The eight corners with their bit patterns and corner numbers are:
- (1,2,3): 000 = 0
- (1,2,6): 001 = 1
- (1,5,3): 010 = 2
- (1,5,6): 011 = 3
- (4,2,3): 100 = 4
- (4,2,6): 101 = 5
- (4,5,3): 110 = 6
- (4,5,6): 111 = 7

Template Parameters

T – type of values to be interpolated
N – number of hyper box corners
Point1 – type specifying geometric positions
Point2 – type specifying geometric positions
Point3 – type specifying geometric positions

Parameters

position – [in] position to which to interpolate
lowerCorner – [in] generalized lower-left corner of hyper box (containing the minima of the hyper box along each dimension)
upperCorner – [in] generalized upper-right corner of hyper box (containing the maxima of the hyper box along each dimension)
values – [in] field values at the hyper box corners sorted in the canonical order defined below.

Returns

interpolated value at given position

Pre

position must describe a position inside the given hyper box, that is \(\text{lowerCorner}[i] \le \text{position}[i] \le \text{upperCorner}[i] \quad \forall i=0, \dots, d-1\).

MaterialMapper<detail::Grid<Material::ParametersVector, detail::EquidistantAxis, detail::EquidistantAxis>> materialMapperRZ(const std::function<size_t(std::array<size_t, 2> binsRZ, std::array<size_t, 2> nBinsRZ)> &materialVectorToGridMapper, std::vector<double> rPos, std::vector<double> zPos, const std::vector<Acts::Material> &material, double lengthUnit = UnitConstants::mm)

Method to setup the MaterialMapper.

e.g.: we have small grid with the values: r={2,3}, z ={4,5}, the corresponding indices are i (belonging to r) and j (belonging to z), the globalIndex is M (belonging to the values of the Material) and the map is:

r	i	z	j	M
2	0	4	0	0
2	0	5	1	1
3	1	4	0	2
3	1	5	1	3

In this case the function would look like:

[](std::array<size_t, 2> binsRZ, std::array<size_t, 2> nBinsRZ) {
   return (binsRZ.at(0) * nBinsRZ.at(1) + binsRZ.at(1));
}

template<typename MatrixType, typename ResultType = MatrixType> std::optional<ResultType> safeInverse(const MatrixType &m) noexcept

FPE “safe” functions.

Our main motivation for this is that users might have a strict FPE policy which would flag every single occurrence as a failure and then sombody has to investigate. Since we are processing a high number of events and floating point numbers sometimes work in mysterious ways the caller of this function might want to hide FPEs and handle them in a more controlled way. Calculate the inverse of an Eigen matrix after checking if it can be numerically inverted. This allows to catch potential FPEs before they occur.

Template Parameters

Derived – Eigen derived concrete type
Result – Eigen result type defaulted to input type

Parameters

m – Eigen matrix to invert

Returns

The theta value

template<template<size_t> class Callable, size_t N, size_t NMAX, typename ...Args> auto template_switch(size_t v, Args&&... args)

Dispatch a call based on a runtime value on a function taking the value at compile time.

This function allows to write a templated functor, which accepts a size_t like parameter at compile time. It is then possible to make a call to the corresponding instance of the functor based on a runtime value. To achieve this, the function essentially created a if cascade between N and NMAX, attempting to find the right instance. Because the cascade is visible to the compiler entirely, it should be able to optimize.

Note

Callable is expected to have a static member function invoke that is callable with Args

Template Parameters

Callable – Type which takes a size_t as a compile time param
N – Value from which to start the dispatch chain, i.e. 0 in most cases
NMAX – Maximum value up to which to attempt a dispatch

Parameters

v – The runtime value to dispatch on
args – Additional arguments passed to Callable::invoke().

template<size_t N, size_t NMAX, typename Lambda, typename ...Args> auto template_switch_lambda(size_t v, Lambda &&func, Args&&... args)

Template Parameters

N – Value from which to start the dispatch chain, i.e. 0 in most cases
NMAX – Maximum value up to which to attempt a dispatch

Parameters

v – The runtime value to dispatch on
func – The lambda to invoke
args – Additional arguments passed to func

Note

only the first kDIM elements will obviously be filled, if the vector tends to be longer, it is truncated

Parameters: vecvals – the vector of bound values to be converted
Returns: an array with the filled values

std::shared_ptr<const CylinderVolumeBuilder> volumeBuilder_dd4hep(dd4hep::DetElement subDetector, const Logger &logger, BinningType bTypePhi = equidistant, BinningType bTypeR = equidistant, BinningType bTypeZ = equidistant, double layerEnvelopeR = UnitConstants::mm, double layerEnvelopeZ = UnitConstants::mm, double defaultLayerThickness = UnitConstants::fm)

Method internally used to create an Acts::CylinderVolumeBuilder.

This method creates an Acts::CylinderVolumeBuilder from a sub detector (= ‘compound’ DetElement or DetElements which are declared as ‘isBarrel’ or ‘isBeampipe’ by their extension.

Attention: The default thickness should be set thin enough that no touching or overlapping with the next layer can happen.

Note

Possible binningtypes:

arbitrary - of the sizes if the surfaces and the distance in between vary. This mode finds out the bin boundaries by scanning through the surfaces.
equidistant - if the sensitive surfaces are placed equidistantly

Note

equidistant binningtype is recommended because it is faster not only while building the geometry but also for look up during the extrapolation

Note

Layers containing surfaces per default are not allowed to be attached to each other (navigation will fail at this point). However, to allow material layers (not containing surfaces) to be attached to each other, this default thickness is needed. In this way, the layer will be thin (with space to the next layer), but the material will have the’real’ thickness.

Parameters

subDetector – [in] the DD4hep DetElement of the subdetector
logger – [in] A logger instance
bTypePhi – [in] is how the sensitive surfaces (modules) should be binned in a layer in phi direction.
bTypeR – [in] is how the sensitive surfaces (modules) should be binned in a layer in r direction
bTypeZ – [in] is how the sensitive surfaces (modules) should be binned in a layer in z direction
layerEnvelopeR – [in] the tolerance added to the geometrical extension in r of the layers contained to build the volume envelope around
layerEnvelopeZ – [in] the tolerance added to the geometrical extension in z of the layers contained to build the volume envelope around
defaultLayerThickness – [in] In case no surfaces (to be contained by the layer) are handed over, the layer thickness will be set to this value

Returns

std::shared_ptr the Acts::CylinderVolumeBuilder which can be used to build the full tracking geometry

template<typename external_spacepoint_t> bool xyzCoordinateCheck(Acts::SpacePointData &spacePointData, const Acts::SeedFinderConfig<external_spacepoint_t> &config, const Acts::InternalSpacePoint<external_spacepoint_t> &sp, const double *spacepointPosition, double *outputCoordinates)
