muo_trackreco package:
Goal: reconstruction of tracks in the muon system taking into account:

• magnetic field
• energy loss
• multiple scattering in the iron toroid.

Algorithms used in the muo_trackreco package: Tracking in the Muon System

The fit algorithm in muo_trackreco: documentation

muo_centralmatch package:
Goal: combine muon tracks with central tracker tracks using error matrices propagation taking into account:

• magnetic field
• matter: multiple scattering and energy loss in toroid and calorimeter

Formulae computed to propagate track parameter error matrix in magnetic field and matter: Error Matrix Propagation
