Description

Charged particle trajectory reconstruction at a Muon Collider detector
is more similar to the hadron collider environment than an electron
collider. The presence of the beam-induced background leaves a large
hit multiplicity in the tracking detector that complicates the pattern
recognition stage of track reconstruction. The BIB hits increase the
possible hit combinations that need to be filtered to create valid
track candidates. This is analogous to the problem from pile-up hits
in an hadron collider detector. The A Common Tracking Software (ACTS)
is a library that implements the tracking algorithms developed by the
collider tracking community, with a particular focus on hadronic
environments. In addition to clever algorithms, it further tackles the
tracking performance issue by heavily optimizing the code and
exploring novel computing architectures. Due to the
experiment-independent design, ACTS allows other experiments to
leverage their complex tracking algorithms in different settings. This
contribution will explore the usage of ACTS to perform the track
reconstruction for simulated muon collider events with full
beam-induced background.
