Description
Summary:This document describes the simulation of the misalignment scenarios for the CMS tracking devices in the framework of the CMS reconstruction package ORCA. We provide first estimates of the expected alignment uncertainties at different stages of the CMS operation, which can be used to study the impact of misalignment on the tracking performance. A few examples of this impact of misalignment on the tracking performance are presented.
