Description
One of the approaches to track finding in SiD is to identify track
seeds in the silicon pixel vertex detector and then associate hits
with the seeds in the silicon strip outer tracker. This talk
describes tracking code developed in the org.lcsim framework that
constructs track seeds from 3D hit measurements and verifies the
presence of a track using the other layers of the tracker. Partiuclar
attention has been played to making the algorithm sufficiently
flexible to allow the study of design alternatives for SiD.
