    You'll need the numbers I took from the figure - I enclose them below.

    I agree that we should use Hijing Ncoll values if available - it will be
    really quick to make new A, B fits if / when I get them - but I understand 
    that it's far from trivial to extract them from Hijing.

    Look at:
    
    http://lynx.uio.no/trine/brahms/mult/RMS_with_pp_AMPT_fullerrors.gif
    
    (syst.error bars included for AuAu points)
    and: 
    
    http://lynx.uio.no/trine/brahms/mult/RMS_with_pp_reducedrange.gif
    and ...../RMS_with_pp_reducedrange2.gif
    
    (removed 1) uppermost and 2) two uppermost points in Eta for AuAu and pp 
    distributions from RMS calculations, to explore the consequences of slightly 
    different eta ranges - I think the latter picture is pushing the uncertainty.)
    The shift in pp RMS relative to the "centroid" for the AuAu RMS set is
    about 0.05.  Interpolated to the same eta range as the AuAu data the pp RMS
    would be 2.38 +-0.05 ....
    
                                             Cheers,
                                                  Trine
