geant pbar absorbtion

The default way of running geant utilized GHESIA for cross sections, in particular absorption.
BRAHMS looked at this for the 2002 p-bar/p letter and found it was inadaquate. ALICE in their papers from
~2013 also investigated this in the pp paper dealing with the p-bar/p vs energy paper.
Her I put some of this information.
- This is an ensemble of e-mails and some plots by Pawel Stazsel from 2001
- Physics Letter from ALICE detailing p-bar efficiencies pdf
- The key figues from 2 is here showing the difference between the geant and fluka efficinecy. This is not the final correction difference which depends on the material budgets which is shown in the second plot.
- For STAR at mid-rapidity and the runs w/o HFT there is very little material at mid-rapidity, thus expect the effects to be order 1% at most For run run 14-16 it is certainly different and should be quantified.,
Efeect of p and pbar for ALICE
Summary request to S&C is the attached pdf
