The ALIGNMENT Project

Welcome to the Alignment project software website.

Announcements

To have access to all the available versions, please follow this link.

This is the homepage for the Alignment software project. The software can be used to align the tracking detectors of the LHCb spectrometer. The principal organizational structure is such that interfacess are put in AlignmentInterfaces, tools can be put in AlignTrTools, where tools related to the Millepede algorithm have been put in AlignmentTools. TAlignment contains two algorithms that can be used for alignment, where one algorithm uses the Kalman filter for fitting tracks, and the other uses an analytical form.
