Difference: HitTripletsIntroduction (1 vs. 2)

Generation of hit pairs

Generation of hit triplets

Important parameters are
theTolerance = Margin(0.03,0.03);
theTolerance = Margin(0.02,0.02);

More accurate prediction

Low p_T tracking

For global reconstruction the defaults are

GlobalTrackingRegion ( float ptMin = 1., float originRadius = 0.2,
                       float originHalfLength = 15., float originZPos = 0.,
                       bool precise = false );

Generation of hit triplets is in ORCA/src/TrackerReco/TkHitTriplets/src
HitTripletGeneratorFromPairAndLayers.cc
HitTripletGeneratorFromPairAndLayers.h

Sensitive parameters for the extrapolation of the third hit are
float dphi = 0.03;
if (fabs(dist) > 0.025) continue;
