    Hi Claus,
    I put my comment below.

    Why not create a new class called (e.g.) BrDstEvent and save the 
    respective objects as a single leaf in the tree structure. BrDstEvent 
    could contain header section to keep
    global information (like event number) and array-type objects to keep 
    information about tracks (particles). We can also split BrDstEvent into 
    a few sub-classes (according to the type or the meaning of variables) 
    and keep them in the different branches.
    
    Regards
    Pawel.
