= Geometry: primitives and algorithms =
== Cylindric layer ==
The [https://git.inp.nsk.su/vvorob/sctparsim/blob/master/Geometry.py Geometry] package contains <code>Cylinder</code> and <code>CylindricalLayer</code> classes. Each detector subsystem is an inheritor of the <code>CylindricalLayer</code>. It is assumed the inner and outer cylinders are oriented along the z axis and have common centre in the origin point.

== Paths ==
Path is a trajectory of particle in the detector. Path of neutral particles (photons, neutrons), straight line, is described by the [https://git.inp.nsk.su/vvorob/sctparsim/blob/master/Line.py Line] class. Path of charged particles (electron, muon, pion, kaon, proton), helix, is described by the [https://git.inp.nsk.su/vvorob/sctparsim/blob/master/Helix.py Helix] class. The <code>Line</code> and <code>Helix</code> are designed to have similar interfaces in order to be used in the same algorithms.
