Efficiency at 20 GeV -- PiMinus, KMinus and Pbar
See
eff.html for details on procedure followed.
The present efficiencies were obtained from the series 901-905, for a
total
of 3149 events, after centrality (10% most central) and vertex (vtxZ<30)
cuts. Total number of events in MC before cuts = 96517.
In the Mc, it was used a hijing distribution in Pt, not a flat
distribution in Pt. Hence the stats for high Pt in Pions is poor. See
the distribution in
eff.html . Also, binomial errors were used for the efficiencies.
Note: in the figures, the fits were done to the function
m1*exp(-1*(m2/Pt)^m3) (i.e., M0 stands for Pt)

3)
