LCDetectors (optional)

There are sample some slicPandora geometry xml files here. (This is a rather big cvs module so might take some time to checkout.)

The geometry file is in XML format. It can be created from a compact detector description using GeomConverter. You are required to provide some additional parameters related to sampling fractions (see LCDetectors/detectors/sidloi3 for example).

The Pandora settings XML file contains settings to configure the Pandora PFA algorithm. Example configuration files can be found in the Pandora Settings SVN project (see building instructions above) (see Settings/PandoraSettingsBasic.xml).

The LCIO input events should contain collections of LCIO CalorimeterHits and a collection of Track objects called "Tracks." There also needs to be a collection called "TrackStates" containing momentum measurements at various points along the Track (see below for details of generating these files).

The LCIO output file will contain the contents of the input file plus the PFO collections created by Pandora, as well as some intermediate collections of hit objects.
