Dear Racha,

I've read your proceedings and found a few typos. I've also listed a few comments / suggestions for rephrasing certain sentences / formulations below:

General spelling comments
  • be consistent with semileptonic vs semi-leptonic / semitauonic vs semi-tauonic (two occurrences of hyphenated spellings)
  • length of hyphen in "B-tagging" should be consistent
  • multivariate vs multi-variate
2. The Belle II experiment
  • I don't think that "confirm the current B-anomalies" is the best wording as it suggests that the B-anomalies are definitely real, while they can also just be a statistical or systematic effect. (same comment for Sec. 4)
3.1 Full Event Interpretation
  • For the semileptonic FEI it's not true that all missing energy can be attributed to neutrinos on the signal side.
  • "as shown in Fig. ??" is probably a remnant and should be removed
3.2 Lepton Identification
  • Belle II has global particle -> Belle II provides global particle
  • almost all detector subsystem inputs -> inputs from almost all detector subsystems
  • idetification -> identification
3.3 E_ECL
  • E_ECL should be typed as $E_{\rm ECL}$ so that ECL is upright
  • sum energy -> summed energy
  • the abbreviation "MVA" is only introduced at the third occurrence of "multivariate" and only used once later in the proceedings, consider to skip it completely or introduce it earlier and use it more often
  • results in a beam background probability -> provides a beam background probability
  • I'd skip "to be assigned as resulting from beam backgrounds or true photons"
4. R(D) and R(D*)
  • closing bracket missing in equation 1 and four lines below and in caption of Fig. 2
  • where here = e or mu -> where l = e or mu
  • iii) semileptonic -> iii) with semileptonic
  • advantage with the leptonic -> advantage of the leptonic
  • same final state -> same visible final state particles
  • 34.6 of Belle II data 34.6 fb^-1 of Belle II data
  • $m^2_{miss}$ -> $m^2_{\rm miss}$
  • p_{D^*} instead of p_D^* in m^2_miss definition
  • B -> D** l nu -> B -> D** l \nu
  • too much space between 0.5 and ab^-1
  • The increase in the size of the Belle II dataset will considerably decrease the total uncertainty of R(D(*)) -> The total uncertainty on R(D(*)) will considerably be reduced with the increasing size of the Belle II data set
5. R(X)
  • After B_tag -> After the B_tag (also in Sec. 6)
  • Have the plots in Fig. 3 been approved? They are lacking the necessary legend entry / title "Belle II preliminary", the integrated luminosity, and a y-axis label.
6. B -> tau nu
  • c ,are -> c, are
  • Optimization of ... to optimize -> Optimization of ... to improve
  • caption of Fig. 4 missing
  • y-axis label of Fig. 4 has unncessary "^-1"
References
  • 6 is missing a reference to a note
