Description
Summary:The MPD (MultiPurpose Detector) and BM@N (Baryonic Matter at Nuclotron) setups at the NICA complex are intended to carry out experiments with heavy ions in the collider and fixed-target modes, respectively. To extract quality physics information from their data it is required to develop and implement efficient and reliable event reconstruction methods in the conditions of high particle multiplicity. A unified approach to the task of track reconstruction in these two experiments was proposed and implemented as a Vector Finder software toolkit. The current status of this project is described in this paper and its basic performance numbers are demonstrated for simulated event samples. Possible future improvements of the method are also presented.
