Package hep.lcd.vertexing.zvtop Description

Package for topological vertex finding written for the LCD JAVA environment.

An introduction into the use of ZvTopVertexer can be found via my homepage:
http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~walkowia
Look for the link to ZvTopVertexer.

ZvTopVertexer has been integrated into the hep.lcd CVS repository. Therefore the package path statements have been adjusted to hep.lcd.vertexing.zvtop .

This package is not perfect yet, thus thank you for your patientence.

Version information.

Please see the package API's for details on classes and methods.

Ideas and algorithms based on SLD's ZvTop3.
