- Discussing the plot Naomi showed yesterday on the analysis meeting - in MC, CDC efficiency going slightly down for the outer layers. Simon explains it with the tracking: when you "swim" you start from the inner ring and the multiple scattering is not taken into account (unlike the tracking itself).  
+
- So far one slot in the tracking session (Mike's alignment), however it is not clear who wants to have a presentation. In principle we have short updates: CDC dE/dx amplitude vs integral (Naomi), dE/dx angular dependence (Lubomir), FDC efficiency (Alex A.), MC efforts, Simon's tracking modifications, FDC threshold upgrade. Naomi will decide how to organize the session.
  
- Naomi discussed with Beni what should be put in the CCDB for the CDC threshold.

- We discussed if it is worth using "FDC amplitude" mode 9 for the CDC readout. Naomi already demonstrated the advantage of using the pulse height of the first peak, instead of the integral for the dE/dx. Sergey explains the fact that most of information is in the first peak by space charge effects, that were seen in the theta dependence of the dE/dx. If the DAQ permits it is worth having information for two peaks (NPK parameter in the firmware =2). All this requires testing

- The plan is to start turning on the CDC systems and then do tests with cosmics. So far only the crates are on.
