Abstract
AbstractThe chapter gives an outline of the event reconstruction chain of a typical large experiment, from the trigger to the physics object reconstruction. The concept of the trigger is illustrated by two examples, CMS and LHCb, followed by a discussion of track reconstruction and its stages: hit generation, local reconstruction, and global reconstruction. The section on vertex reconstruction introduces a classification of vertices and sets the scene for the dedicated chapters on vertex finding and vertex fitting. The chapter concludes with some remarks on particle identification and reconstruction of physics objects such as electrons, muons, photons, jets,τleptons, and missing energy.
