ZVMST: a minimum spanning tree-based vertex finder

arXiv:0811.3904

Abstract

A new topological vertex finder is presented which combines ideas of the well-established ZVTOP algorithm with a novel minimum spanning tree approach. A preliminary performance study with simulated e+e- --> qqbar events at a centre of mass energy of 92 GeV shows that the new approach is competitive with existing vertex finder algorithms.
