16 // Class AliEMCALTrack
17 // ---------------------
18 // A class implementing a track which is propagated to EMCAL and
19 // matches and EMCAL cluster.
20 // This track object will not update Kalman parameters, but it
21 // allows for track propagation and suitable energy loss correction,
22 // even in an environment with a variable magnetic field, which is not
23 // well managed in the AliExternalTrackParam class.
