Abstract

The Combinatorial Kalman Filter (CKF) is a tracking concept that combines track finding and track fitting in a search-tree-based algorithm. It is used by many high energy physics experiments (Mankel and Spiridonov in Nucl Instrum Methods Phys Res Sect A Accel Spectrom Detect Assoc Equip 426(2–3):268–282, 1999, [1], Mankel in Rep Prog Phys 67(4):553–622, 2004, [2], CMS Collaboration in J Instrum 9(10):P10009–P10009, 2014, [3], ATLAS Collaboration in Eur Phys J C 77(10):673, 2017, [4])—often as the main tracking algorithm. Due to its combination of track finding and fitting, it can give precise results leading to high purities as well as high efficiencies.
