Hi Barbara,

The slides look good already. I have minor comments below.

Thanks,
Isaac

2.
        "in the QGP" or "in the QCD medium"
        Should the "sequential quarkonium suppression" bullet be a subbullet 
of HNM effects, or no?

3.      Could you either add to this image the TOF label, or use one which 
has it labeled, since you mention it on the right?

4.
        The singlet should produce a higher jet multiplicity, right? So could 
you color code or in some way distinguish the "color singlet" and "color 
octet" in the bullet at the top of the slide, then in the diagram on the 
bottom right use the octet color scheme for the cartoon on the left, and the 
singlet color scheme for the cartoon on the right, to give people a concrete 
idea of what increased/decreased associated jet production means for the 
models?
        Is it possible to go one step further in the conclusion about 
Pythia8? I.e. can we say that this means that Pythia8 has too much 3S1[8] 
production vs. 3S1[1]?

5.
        "Constraints"
        I would appreciate a small note on the slide about the right-most 
point on the plot being shifted from identically 1 to 1.05 for visualization 
purposes.

7.
        "Indication of CNM energy loss effects"?
        Sorry for this naïve question; the claim is that we see an indication 
of CNM effects, but when the model incorporating energy loss in a nuclear 
medium also incorporates nPDFs effects (which should be more realistic, 
right?), it predicts a different behavior than what we see. Would the 
conclusion then not be that either there are other CNM effects which need to 
be considered, or there is some HNM contribution?

8.      "collision energy"
        Should this colored text be green to be consistent with s. 2? In 
general it would be nice to have consistent color coding throughout. [By the 
way, for red-green color blind people like myself, the green and red (brown?) 
chosen are almost indistinguishable].

9.      "medium size and energy density"

10.     Suggestion: "...of the J/\psi suppression at similar N_part -> medium 
energy density is key factor in J/\psi suppression" or similar.

12.     "in peripheral A+A collisions"; "describe"

14.     I'm confused by the plot on the right: these are the AuAu 
centralities on the upper x-axis, right? But for the same N_part, the isobars 
should be at a different centrality. So could this be removed?
        Could you add a big "J/\psi" to the plot on the left for clarity? 
Maybe in the y-axis title just like the Upsilon results, or maybe also add a 
big "Upsilon" in the white space of that plot for extra visibility.

15.     Plots are cutting off the bottom text.
