sPHENIX tracking discussion

["Osborn, Joseph" <josborn1 AT bnl.gov>]

Hi all, and others who may be interested,

Last week at the tracking meeting we discussed that it would be useful to have a tracking macro that runs over the higher level DSTs that are produced in the production, i.e. cluster and track seed DSTs. I made such a macro and pushed it to the repository. The idea was to encourage people to use the higher level reconstruction DSTs and also to provide a macro that uses less resources and is more non-tracking expert friendly. This is obviously much faster CPU-wise as it only runs the track fitting, which you can still choose whether or not to use a helix fit or Acts.

Let me know if you have questions/problems,

Joe
