    Djamel,
    
    Thanks for posting;  A few extra questions
    
    I assume the centrality is 0-5 ?
    Is the protons/anti really at 2.98 and 3.05 i.e. .07 difference.
    
    To help understand where the losses are (yes the pions are too low)
    it could be useful to summarize this in a table where eff's are multipled on
    - tracking eff (per chamber)
    - multiplied tracking eff
    - matching effeciencies assumed.
    - RICH effeciencies
    - target cuts..
    The rationale for this is to identify which one are likely to be missed.
    
    What is the final deciding fiducial volumes ? A useful check might be to
    comnpare the accepted phi-range
    in the data sample with that of the MC accepted phi-range. e.g. a similar
    plot to the one used for
    comparing y-pt accepted vs y-pt measured. It could even be done in phi-theta
    (calc- measured)
    
    good luck
