Emil quick update:

# material study
- I wrote to Andreas Salzburger to get better idea of Itk services and the d0 calculation defaults. Answer/chat pending.
- checking d0 calculation in the Kalman tracking / DELPHES mini script code: all layers are taken into account, inner ones dominate of course, but explains why the mid-vertex material affects this quantity 

# Recent IPC/SR files
- Recent IPC files needed fix (wrong evt/particle number..), waiting on Jan for the files
- Nestor Kontaxakis (tech student with EP-FCC group) did some additions to bib-studies (to be pushed) to look at DCH, and in particular: multi-BC windows. I'm in touch with them to further understand and validate the approach (and I need to check the github PR).
- CLD BIB studies shown days ago. They use part of the bib-studies recipe; will reach out to them, either for a coffee chat, or even invite them for a common discussion, if useful.

# Tracking workshop
- Armin shared abstract he prepared for , he said he is flexible to adapt, depending on our content as well
- MDI conveners didn't ask Jan yet (they asked Armin though) for tracking workshop,
  - Jan suggested we show results from recent files to MDI meeting (and can also show in tracking ws). For now, still waiting on the proper files.

# FYI
- PED general meeting

(incl. Jan's slides for physics requirements, wrt MDI...)
