Detailed Description

Functions for track parameters extrapolation.

The extrapolation of the trajectory is done according to the equation of motion. If the track passes a magnetic field the equation of motion for a charged particle is solved applying the 4th order Runge-Kutta method and the transport matrix is calculated by integrating the derivatives along the so called zero trajectory. If passing a field free region a straight line is used for extrapolation and the transport matrix calculation.
