Abstract :
Visualization of events in high energy physics is an important tool to check hard- and software and to generate pictures for presentation purposes. The radial pattern of all events suggests the use of predefined projections, especially p/Z and Y/X. The representation can be improved by a "fish-eye" transformation and by angular projections, which produce straight track patterns and allow extensive magnifications. Three dimensional data of radial structure are best displayed in the 3D V-Plot, which has optimal track separation and presents all relevant information in a clear way
