Structure Diagram for FTP: Path Fitter
                    ======================================
 
         An Introduction to the Structure Diagrams is available.

Introduction
------------
 
For each EV, FTP performs a path fit and places its results in an FTP subtree
of banks. The Path Fitter is maximum likelihood fitter which uses different
calculated PDFs for each electron position, direction, and time in the detector.
Each calculated PDF contains both PMT timing and angular information that is
used in the fitting. The Path Fitter also provides several goodness-of-fit tests
which can be useful for rejecting bad fits as well as non-Cereknov events in a
data sample.
 
IMPORTANT: FTP ignores PMTs that have the KPF_DIS bit set in the PF word.
