Hi Ian,

I get tracking efficiency from Pawel's file for AuAu run, in order to use 
his file I assume centrality value is 60%, that is the most peripheral 
events in his file. Then it turns out the efficiency to be 100% for 
p>6GeV/c. If, let's say, tracking efficiency is 80% or less, this 
certainly will increase the yield because you will divide the spectra by 
0.8. 

Cheers,
Zhongbao
