Dear collaborator, Enclosed please find an updated version of the high pt paper draft. Claus has worked hard at a reanalysis and along the way we have changed the figure strategy to focus more on the rapidity dependence, which is the BRAHMS specialty. At the same time we focus more on the relative changes between spectra and ratios. This should make us more independent of the p+p 'reference' and of various systematic errors. We have been debating whether to show all 4 centrality cuts or just 2 as in here. Opinions? Claus hopes to be able to post a web page with details of the analysis later. We have had various input (ZBY, JN, MM, KH etc..). Not all has been included yet into the manuscript. Not because of lack of good will but because of lack of time. Hope your comments will continue flowing. They are necessary if we are to attempt a submission not too far behind the other 3 experiments. All sorts of comments are greatly appreciated. Particularly those that also concretely suggest a solution to a given problem. In particular we request your opinion about whether this approach (text and figures) is suitable. If the general idea is acceptable by a majority, the next job is to improve the quality of the draft, of figure appearance etc, while continuing analysis checks. Parallel processing is necessary. cheers Claus, Ian and JJ ____________________________________________________________ Jens Jørgen Gaardhøje, Assoc. Prof., Dr. Sc.
