Related: Are you using zotero to create the bib file?

Ideally, the bib file should be created from a folder in our group zotero folder, in the paper-dev directory. I have created a folder that you can fill with these items.

My review is here. This issue can be closed when the items noted in the pdf are corrected or handled.

A few overarching notes:

• All variables should be defined clearly, with units. My preference is a style like this, for each equation:

\begin{align}
A &= \lambda N\\
A &= \mbox{total activity } [s^{-1}]\\
\lambda &= \mbox{decay constant, reciprocal of the mean lifetime } [s^{-1}]\\
N &= \mbox{total number of particles in the sample } [-]
\end{align}

• Cite all software
• I prefer Figure and Table over "figure" and "table"
• I know you know this... there is something funky about your citations. Some are (Authorname, Year) while others are (correctly) [1].
• It will help to have a table indicating the training parameters you intend to explore.
• A few sentences would be clearer if they were active voice.

Also, please review the writing checklist:

• Run a spell checker.
• The Oxford comma appears in ("lions, tigers, and bears.")
• Do not use the word "where" unless referring to a location (try "such that" or "in which").
• Articles such as "a" "the" "some" "any" and "each" appear where necessary.
• All subjects match the plurality of their verbs ( no: "Apples is tasty" yes: "Apples are tasty")
• Avoid run-on sentences.
• clunky nouns -> spunky verbs (progression, expression --> progress, express)
• reduce vague words (important, methodologic)
• reduce acronyms / jargon
• get rid of unnecessary prepositional phrases -- author clearing throat (It can be shown that)
• get rid of extraneous adverbs (very, really, quite, basically, generally)
• get rid of there are / there is
• turn negatives to positives (she was not often right -> she was usually wrong)
• get rid of extraneous prepositions (the meeting happened on monday -> the meeting happened monday) (they agreed that it was true -> they agreed it was true)
• get rid of passive voice (is/was/are/were/be/been/am + past tense verb), replace with active voice
• use strong verbs (use sparingly: is, are, was, were, be, been, am)
• avoid turning verbs into nouns ("obtain estimates of" -> "estimates"; "provides a description of" -> "describes")
• don't bury the verb (keep the predicate close to the subject at the beginning of the sentence)
• data is plural (the data are critical)
• compare to (point out similarities between different things) vs. compared with (point out differences between similar things)
• punctuation helps you to vary your sentence structure
• Power to separate in increasing power: comma, colon, dash, parentheses, semicolon, period
• In increasing order of formality: dash, parentheses, all of the others. Don't overdo it with the dash and parentheses
• semicolon: connects two independent clauses. OR used to separate when the items in the list contain internal punctuation.
• use a colon to introduce a list, quote, explanation, conclusion, or amplification
• if there's a list in a sentence, it shouldn't come before the colon
• use a dash to insert something in the middle of the sentence. Don't overuse it.
