***************************************************************************
*
*     Common for the track analysis, performed by the routine mini.f
*
***************************************************************************
c      PARAMETER (PIGR=3.141592654)!???????????????????

*     -------------------------------------------------------------------------
*     A TRACK is defined by: 
*     - the measured points associated to it 
*     - their spatial resolution 
*     - the track status vector AL-pha 
*     
*     This common must be filled when calling mini_2. After the fit, 
*     the initial values of AL-pha (initial guess, for instance from Hough) 
*     are replaced with the minimization result.
*
*     About the measured points:
*     - a COUPLE defines a point in the space; in this case you should set
*
*       XGOOD     = 1
*       YGOOD     = 1
*       XM,YM,ZM  = coordinates of the point in cm
*       RESX      = spatial resolution of cl-x
*       RESY      = spatial resolution of cl-y
*
*     - a SINGLET (single cluster x/y) defines a segment AB, parallel to 
*       the x/y strips; in this case you should set, for example in the case
*       of a cl-x:
*
*       XGOOD     = 1
*       YGOOD     = 0
*       ZM        = average z coordinate of the segment AB in cm
*       XM_A,YM_A = coordinates of extreme point A
*       XM_B,YM_B = coordinates of extreme point B
*       RESX      = spatial resolution of cl-x
*
*     NB!!! ZM must be always initialized, at least with the mechanical positions
*
*     (All the needed quantities for couples and singlets can be evaluated
*     by means of the routine xyz_PAM)
