Abstract
The “LiC Detector Toy” allows investigation of the track parameter resolution via Monte Carlo, for the purpose of optimizing a detector set-up. It features:
• Simulation of the track sensitive part of a ring or linear collider detector with a solenoid magnetic field, and its material budget;
• Support of measurements by semiconductor pixel and strip detectors, and a TPC;
• Track reconstruction by a Kalman filter, including tests of goodness of the fits.
Written in MatLab® (a language and IDE by MathWorks).

Motivation• Compare track parameter resolutions of various detector set-
ups, for both barrel and forward/backward regions;
• Optimize size and position of the track sensitive devices, and of the detector material budgets;
• A simple tool – easy to understand, handle and modify;
• Can easily be adapted to meet individual needs;
• Can be installed on a desktop or laptop PC;
• Quick results by “shorter than a coffee break”;
• Live demonstration at a conference possible;
• An integrated graphics user interface (GUI) available.

Program Features (general)• Measurements by single or double layers, or by a TPC;• Efficiencies uncorrelated (strips), or strictly correlated
(pixels); passive layers defined by zero efficiency;• Thickness of scatterers given in radiation lengths;• Homogeneous magnetic field (by a solenoid), rotational
symmetry w.r.t. the z-axis of the detector set-up;however, an asymmetry w.r.t. the z coordinate possible;
• Start parameters for simulated tracks are user-defined:– Vertex position range (on z-axis), – Transverse momentum range,– Range of polar angle θ,– Number of tracks from the vertex;
• Goodness of the fit monitored by pull quantities and χ².

Program Features (barrel region)
• Coaxial cylinder layers of arbitrary length and position;
• Any number of passive layers;• Measurement of two coordi-
nates: azimuth (RΦ), position along the cylinder (z);
• Optional stereo angle for strip detectors (z’ instead of z);
• Resolution in TPC Gaussian, and may depend on z.

Program Features (fwd/bwd region)• Circular plane layers, perpendicular to z-axis;• Arbitrary z position and inner/outer radius;• Any number of passive plane layers;• Measurements of two coordinates (u and v), directions
depend on intersection point, defined by angles δ1, δ2.u

Simulation
• Single tracks originating from a vertex, assumed at (0, 0, z);
• Solenoid magnetic field, rotational symmetry w.r.t. z-axis;
• Exact helix track model, with kinks for multiple scattering;
• Multiple scattering at discrete “thin” layers:– Measurement layers and scattering material treated separately,– Correct path length traversed, material budget averaged over layer,– Scattering angles Gaussian distributed (in the track’s local coordinate
frame) according to the Highland formula;
• Gaussian (TPC) or uniformly distributed measurement errors;
• Systematic and/or stochastic inefficiencies included.

Reconstruction
• No Pattern Recognition !• Track fit by an exact Kalman filter:
– Inclusion of multiple scattering (“process noise”),– Fitting performed from outside inwards;
• Linear track model:– Expansion point is a “reference track” (method similar to that of the
DELPHI experiment);• Parameters:
– Fitted parameters defined at the inside of the innermost layer,– DELPHI-like parameter vector and error matrix:
{ Φ, z, θ, β = φ-Φ, κ = ±1/RH } with sign(κ) = sign(dφ/ds), and corresponding 5x5 covariance matrix;
– Optional CMS-like Cartesian parameters and errors:{ x, y, z, px, py, pz } with a 6x6 covariance matrix of rank 5.
