what does that mean?
→ need for alignment algorithm
for track based alignment tracks are needed!
→ despite of misalignment reconstruction possible?
how well aligned to be able to align?

Alignment Strategy
General Broken Lines Fit
An Advanced Track Fitting Method
multiple scattering & energy loss→ more advanced track models track refit (seeding needed!)
→ complete covariance matrix of all parameters
→ track based alignment withMillepede-II computing time of O(n)
by exploiting sparsity of matrix (n = number of measurements)
V. Blobel, C. Kleinwort,
Alignment Strategy
Millepede-II
Least Squares Fits with a Large Number of Parameters
fit track & alignment parameters simultaneously
→ very large minimisation problem!
solve irrespectively of track parameters
→ reduced to an×n matrix equation (n =number of alignment parameters) reasonable computing time
even for up to 100,000 alignment parameters
