The TertiaryTracksVertexFinder (TTVF) is designed for reconstructing secondary vertices in jets. It is documented in CMS Note 2006/027 where its implementation in the previous software framework ORCA is called TertiaryVertexTrackFinder (TVTF).
The basic idea is to find tracks from a tertiary charm hadron decay in the b-c decay cascade, and associate them to the secondary vertex. The procedure is as follows: First, the standard TrimmedKalmanVertexFinder is run in order to reconstruct secondary vertex candidates. Then, a filter is run on the vertices in which primary vertices, conversions, nuclear interactions or K0 candidates are rejected. The b-flightline is reconstructed from the primary and secondary vertex. Tracks close to the b-flight line not associated to a vertex are searched and added to the secondary vertex. Note that the position of the secondary vertex is not recalculated after the additional tracks have been added.
