Detailed Description

Class for linear expansion of track parameters in vicinity of vertex.

The measurement equation is linearized in the following way:

F_k= D_k (x_k - x_0k) + E_k (p_k - p_0k) + F^0_k

where F_k are the parameters at perigee nearest to the linearization point, x_k is the position of the vertex, p_k the track momentum at the vertex, and F^0_k is the constant term of expansion. D_k and E_k are matrices of derivatives, denoted hereafter as "positionJacobian" and "momentumJacobian" respectively.
