'''Reconstruction''' is the act of going from the raw output of a [[detector]] to a description of an [[event]] in terms of physical [[Particle|particles]], [[System|multiparticle systems]], and other such high-level [[Object|objects]].

Due to practical limitations of the detector, reconstruction is not perfect, but subject to experimental [[Efficiency|inefficiencies]] and [[Detector resolution|resolution]] effects. Detectors do not cover the full [[phase space]] of the produced particles.
