sPHENIX tracking discussion

[pinkenburg <pinkenburg AT bnl.gov>]

    Hi Tony,
    
    I don't see that shifting the hits after the fact is a viable option
    for the embedding. You generate the sims using the "wrong" material
    locations and then shift the hit positions. This likely works for
    tracking but if you consider the effects of this on simulations at
    large you run very quickly into trouble with this approach.
    Secondaries from interactions with material will be produced in the
    wrong place, heat maps looking for support structures won't match
    and so on.

        Hi All,
      
        
      
      
        Following the discussion at yesterday's tracking software
        meeting, I have updated my slides on de-aligning and aligning
        sPHENIX tracking at:
      
        https://indico.bnl.gov/event/16867/
      
        
      
      
        The new slides 9 and 10 outline how I think we can embed
        simulated tracks in real data without modifying the simulation
        geometry.
