Hi,

it assumes beta==1 for the multiple scattering.

I know where this is set but I haven’t yet thought about if that is the only place you would change that to make it work for a different assumption.

Maybe someone else has time to think about this, or better, have done this before?

Hello Sebouh,
 Energy loss is not currently accounted for in the track fit.

Subject: reconstruction: does it account for multiple scattering/brehmstralung?

I have been looking at the resolution of the SVT for reconstructing the A' invariant mass for muon events, and I have a question about the reconstruction software's internal workings:  does it by default take into account energy loss and multiple scattering due to brehmstralung?  I assume if so, then it is calibrated under the assumption that the particle is an electron.  If this is the case, is there a way to either disable this feature or (better yet) have it make the assumption that the particle is a muon (so that I can get a more accurate measurement of the A' mass resolution)?

thanks
