Dear Zhangbao,

Happy new year also to you.

On the trigger let me just repeat what is in
http://www.sdcc.bnl.gov/brahms/private/list_hyper/brahms-dev-l/2919.html

The trigger is highly effecient, It does not loose track (as long it goes by
the slats).
It has a fair amount of background - so you cannot blame the result on the
trigger.

I recall that Claus have similar differences shown at the coll. meeting,
unfortunately the pres. are
not on our website, so I could not check. Certainly more work has also been
done since by Claus.  I cannot
tell from the higher pt due to the binning if it is also lower in that
range - maybe you could bin into say 400 or 500 MeV bins at the higher pt.
It should also be recalled that the ref. pp was not a measured spectrum, but
evaluated from UA1.

regards
    Flemming
