- Second part of Simon's results: projections on z. The positions of the target walls and the scattering chamber, as defined by the FDC with straight tracks, are off by almost 1cm  as compared to the  results when using the CDC with magnetic field. Later Simon included FDC only track with magnetic field and confirmed an offset b/n FDC and CDC by about 8mm.

- Lubomir showed comparison b/n the FDC currents with full/empty target without magnetic field and 3.4mm collimator. The ratio is 2.4, to be compared to 1.4 we had before with magnetic field and 5mm collimator. The FDC currents when normalized to the active target with 3.4mm are about 20% higher than with 5mm collimator, indicating additional background not related to the collimator hole. Lubomir also showed how the FDC currents change with the magnetic field (see logentry): from 0 to 450A the currents decrease by a factor of ~4.5. There's additional factor of 5 from 450A to 1200A, so in total ~22. This is to be compared to a factor of ~40 from the spring of 2015, also indicating some extra background that we have now.
