STAR HardProbes PWG

[Sooraj Radhakrishnan <skradhakrishnan AT lbl.gov>]

Hi Barbara,

   Thanks for preparing this nice abstract. Please find some comments from me below. 

L4: I think at this point we can state, 'Ultra relativistic heavy-ion collisions create a dense and ...'

L8: A suggestion, may be the open heavy flavor part on L13 goes better immediately after 'probing the whole medium evolution'. Quarkonia probing the color screening and thermodynamic properties could come after as a separate point.

L10: effect --> mechanism, which causes the quarkonia bound states to dissociate in the QGP,

L19: J/Psi production --> J/Psi suppression?

L21: results on --> measurements of?

L23: the part staring 'that conclude ...' can be removed

L27: D0 tagged jets and their radial profiles 

L29: by STAR will be discussed

thanks

Sooraj

Hello Barbara,

Thank you for implementing my last comments.
Please find my additional comments below.

LIne#4: "In ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions creation a dense and
hot medium  … is expected." -> "In ultra-relativistic heavy-ion
collisions, a dense and hot medium… is created."

Line#5: "…a dense and hot medium with partonic degrees of freedom,
called the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP),…" -> "…a dense and hot Quantum
Chromodynamics medium with the color degrees of freedom, called the
Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), …" (Here "dense and hot medium" is the QCD
medium; you mean "color degrees of freedom" here).

Line#12: "…not only…, but help…,respectively." -> The syntax of this
sentence needs a bit of improvement. Suggestion: use "and" with
",respectively." in this sentence. Otherwise, use "not only…but…"
without "respectively" here.


Regards,
Nihar
