| contents | We propose a new system of equations which identifies the helix common to all drift distance hits produced by a full stereo drift chamber detector when a charged particle passes through this detector. The equation system is obtained using the Apollonius' problem as guideline which gives it a very simple form and a clear physics interpretability as the case of full axial drift chamber detector. The proposed method is evaluated using drift distance hits constructed from Monte Carlo-generated helix trajectory tracks. The equation system is solved using a robust accelerated GPU brute-force algorithm based on interval arithmetic. All code is written using the Julia programming language. |
