The future PANDA experiment at FAIR aims to investigate a wide range of physics processes in antiproton-proton collisions at rates of up to 20 MHz, while employing a purely software-based event filter. To educate the trigger decisions, a full event reconstruction has to be carried out in real time. This challenge is amplified when considering tracks from particles with long lifetimes and displaced decay vertices, which add to the complexity of the reconstruction algorithms. Here, we present modifications to a cellular automatonbased track finder taking detector time-stamps into account in addition to spatial information, as well as several pattern recognition methods for longitudinal track reconstrucion with PANDA’s Straw Tube Tracker.
