Query: Acceptance corrections to net baryon and net charge cumulants   We show that the effect of finite acceptance drastically influences the
net-baryon and net-charge cumulants, which are believed to be sensitive probes
of the QCD phase diagram. We derive the general formulae that relate the true
cumulants K_{n} which reflect the full dynamics of the system with the actually
measured cumulants c_{n} for a given acceptance, modeled by a binomial
probability parameter p. We find that this relation involves additional moments
which cannot be expressed by cumulants and should be measured in order to
extract any potential information about the QCD critical point. We demonstrate
that for a wide range of the true cumulant ratios K_{n}/K_{m} the measured
ratios c_{n}/c_{m} quickly converge if p < 1/2, which makes the interpretation
of the data very challenging, especially in case of the net-proton cumulants.
Our study further suggests that the measurement of net-charge cumulants may be
more advantageous for the investigation of the QCD phase diagram.
