SeeVogh 15 9119 (1-2PM), at 17:00 (GMT), duration : 01:00
 Agenda:

a) Physics plots update and discussions
   toward final figures in LoI
   i) FCS simulations (Len)
     https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/blog/leun/2013/jul/23/fcs-hadron-resolution

  ii) strategy of forward tracking
      currently we assume that tracking will be there,
     but haven't defined it well yet: GEM, Silicon?
  iii) |t| mean and sigma in VM production

  iv) energy loss (Ming)
