MdtDriftCircleOnTrackCreator_MdtDriftCircleOnTrackCreatorDocIntro

Overview

This package provides a tool, Muon::MdtDriftCircleOnTrackCreator, which turns Muon::MdtPrepData into Muon::MdtDriftCircleOnTrack objects using a given trajectory prediction.

The tool calls the MDT calibration service (MdtCalibrationSvc). This service provides the same functionality which would usually be foreseen for this tool, i.e. it computes and corrects the drift radius using the track prediction and calibrates its error estimate.

More general information on RIO_OnTrackCreation and instructions how to use these tools can be found under Trk::RIO_OnTrackCreator.
