Hi Ian and Claus, A quick comment from vacation land. Sounds good with the paper. I would not go too deep into the replies. Its sound as if the story is accepted. We have used that value. Period. I suggest figure 2, as the one to go on the cover. We should make a sexy color version. Figure 3, is too specialized for that. Fig. 2 shows that we have info on y=0 and 2. Another approach is to produce a new figure for the purpose with the Raa's of y=0,2 for Au+Au and d+Au. A concerns the sigma(inel), the point is, I think, that the 42 mb includes the diffractive component and the nuclear. These two have very different rapidity distributions, Thus, the UA1 in |eta|<2.5 does not see any of the diffractive, but only the nuclear. However, the p+p spectrum from UA1, has I think, been normalized to the total reaction cross section. So to go from cross section to d2N/dptdeta, listed in the plot in the UA1 paper, one ha to divide out the cross section factor. So the issue, as I understand it, with an increasingly disconnected brain, is the normalization of the publ. ref. spectrum, not any issue of efficiencies or other. Someone with a library should reread the UA1 paper and check and also the nucl-ex in question. cheers JJ ____________________________________________________________ Jens Jørgen Gaardhøje, Assoc.
