CMS Object-oriented Code for Optical Alignment



COCOA is designed for the study and use of the CMS Optical Position Monitor System.

It was decided to make a software as general as possible in order to keep the maximal flexibility.

Following this flexibility in design, COCOA, phase I, is able to study any optical system through a geometrical approximation. It allows you to reconstruct the positions and angles (and also the internal parameters) of the objects that compose an optical system from the measurements taken by the system, propagating the errors.
