Hello Priyanka,

Please find my comments on your nice poster.

Abstract:
"…D0-K, D0-proton pairs…" -> "…D0-K, and D0-proton pairs…"

I.Motivation
"Area of homogeneity (Fig. 1)" -> Figure-1: Area of homogeneity"

II.Methodology
"Fig 3.: k* in pair-rest frame" -> "Figure-3: Femtoscopic correlation 
and k* in pair-rest frame"
"…correlated and uncorrelated pairs." -> "…correlated and uncorrelated 
pairs in an event ensemble."
"N" make same font style of as in the equation.
"Event mixing technique to calculate k* for uncorrelated pairs" -> 
"Event mixing technique to calculate k* for uncorrelated pairs using the 
real events"

III. Experiment:…
"HFT(…) Directly…" -> "HFT (…): Directly…" or "HFT(…) directly …";
"Plot 1, 2: Particle identification (PID) using TOF and TPC 
respectively" -> "Figure-6: Particle identification (PID) using TOF 
(left) and TPC (right)."
(No need to use Fig and plot separately)
"Ref. (plot 1,2 and fig. 5): PHYSICAL REVIEW C 99, 034908 (2019)" -> 
"STAR: PRC 99, 034908 (2019)"
(This is enough to cite)


IV. Analysis & Outcomes

BG-> background
Could you make a better resolution for these two plots? (This is your 
hard work and first time showing outside)
"Plot 3-4: pT dependence of D0 invariant mass" -> "Figure-7: pT 
dependence of D0 invariant mass
"PairPurity" -> "Pair Purity"
"Track id (Hadron) ≠ Track id (D0K-/π+)"-> this is not clear; you may 
rephrase this.
"Track splitting: No. of hits / Max no. of hits" No need to mention 
technical terms. Simple use "Additional track quality cuts on TPC hits"
"between hits" -> "between TPC hits"

"Systematic uncertainty calculations for C(k*) are under progress" Not 
required here. Please drop it.


"How the correlation functions should look like?
We can’t predict the shape because this kind of analysis hasn’t done 
before. Moreover, QGP and hadronic phase effects are unknown."

I would not be critic of our own analysis in this poster, better to 
highlight positive aspect of this analysis and say what you mention in 
Motivation section.
How about?

Work in progress to study the correlation between D^0 and p/pi/k in 
Au+Au collisions
->Provides information on nature of interactions between charm and light 
quarks in QGP medium.


Summary:
"Model study (ex. Lednický–Lyuboshitz) is required…" -> "Model study 
(ex. Lednický–Lyuboshitz) is ongoing…"
"Theoretical or simulation studies are not available." -> "Theory inputs 
are required to explore the nature of interaction" (Put this bullet at 
the end)


Cheers
Nihar
