[ROOT] Info about TParticle

Dear all,
I'm developing a tracking procedure which should manage to recognize 
primary and prompt particle tracks. In order to calculate the efficiency 
of my implementation, I would find a way to include (as findable tracks) 
all primary tracks together with the secondaries which were produced 
quite near to the primary vertex.
When I read the TParticle class, I encountered a fVx,y,z, members which 
should help for the production vertex locating, but I found that this 
vertex can be nealry everywhere!
The strange thing is that, studying the tracks recognized with the 
Kalman algorithm for ALICE ITS, most of these recognized tracks seemed 
to have their vertex located in all the space up to the RICH (!).
How can I get the information I need, then?

Regards

Alberto
