Hi Natalia,

   thanks a lot for making this efficiency maps for d+Au data. I have 
one question - can you estimate the FFS tracking efficiencies for 8 and 
12 deg as well? (as I mentioned in my previous mail to you, about the 
data situation for those runs at 8 and 12 deg, most of them only has FFS 
tracks (especially for 8 deg data). And I have been trying to analyze 
only the FFS data, using H1 to do PID, which requires the efficiency 
only calculated for FFS. The list you have had already.)
 
   I would test the maps at 4 deg, you have had made already. I will let 
you know its performance.

Many thanks,
  Hongyan
