Detailed Description
Algorithm that digitizes the PSD time measurement using a threshold identification.
This algorithm produces a digitized time measurement for PSD elements starting from PSD particle hits. The current implementation is extremely simplified: the time measurement is taken at the time of passage of the particle whose energy deposit exceeds a given threshold. A gaussian spread is then applied to this time stamp.
The geometric effects of the particle hit point on the PSD element and of the size of the element itself are currently not taken into account.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| <psdPartHitsColl> | PsdParticleHitsColl | evStore | No | The PSD particle hits. |
| <psdHitsColl> | PsdHitsColl | evStore | No | The PSD hits. |
