abstract = {The PANDA experiment at FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and
Ion Research) in Darmstadt is currently under construction.
In order to reduce the amount of data collected during
operation, it is essential to find as many true tracks as
possible and to be able to distinguish them from false
tracks. Part of the preparation for the experiment is the
development of a fast online track finder. This work
presents an online track finding algorithm based on Hough
transformations, which is comparable in quality and
performance to the currently best offline track finder in
PANDA. In contrast to most track finders the algorithm can
handle the challenge of extended hits delivered by PANDA’s
central Straw Tube Tracker and thus benefit from its precise
spatial resolution. Furthermore, optimization methods are
presented that improved the ghost ratio as well as the speed
of the algorithm by 70 $\%.$ Due to further development
potential in terms of track finding for secondary particles
and speed optimization on GPUs, this algorithm promises to
exceed the quality and speed of other track finders
developed for PANDA.},
