Hi Grant,

Thanks a lot for the very nice slides. I only have a few minor comments/suggestions for your consideration. 

  - p6, p7: it is a bit strange to put "collides p+p beams at sqrt(s) = 200 GeV" here.

  - before p8: It would be good to have a slide to list your data set, selection cuts and some details (previous "collides p+p beams at sqrt(s) = 200 GeV" can be put here).

   - p11, p12: the bottom panel, MC/data, which MC is used here? 

                     Does it make sense to merge these two pages to one since the plots are the same? Totally up to you.

   - p14: Since it is using PYTHIA-8 as the "data", it should be able to obtain the true quark/glue fractions, right? How does it compare to the fit results? Can you list the fit results on the plot?

             Or do I misunderstand this plot, the black line is just the sum of blue, red, and green? 

Cheers,

Yi

Hi Barbara,

Thank you for the helpful comments. I have added the kappa value to the axis label on my figures to make this clearer, especially in the future when I show more than one kappa value as you pointed out. I have addressed all of your comments and regarding s15 I have removed specific reference to pythia-6 templates and generalized to monte carlo to avoid this confusion. The reason we do not show the pythia-6 templates is that we currently do not have access to the parton information in pythia-6. I have attached the updated slides here and will post them to drupal shortly.

Best,
Grant McNamara

Hi Grant,

please find below my comments to your nice slides.

General:

- Please improve the quality of the figures.

- Going back to Nihar's comment on kappa, I think it's important to add this information to the preliminary plots. It's true that you mention it at the beginning of your presentation, but plots can be taken later by other people. Also, we should be able to distinguish it once you have later results for other kappa values.

-s5: increase size of the figure

-s12: Mean shifts to from -> Mean shifts from

-s13: the CMS paper is published, please change the reference to the journal and add "CMS"

-s14: Gluon initiated jet fraction -> PYTHIA-8 Monash: Gluon initiated jet fraction (to avoid potential confusion that the numbers are obtained from our data)

-s15: Use PYTHIA-6 - on s14 you show PYTHIA 8 when you discuss template fitting, which one you're planning to use ?

Cheers,

Barbara

Hello Grant,

Thank you for your reply and implementing my comments.
I have no further comments and I sign off.

Enjoy DNP!
