Final draft review (Prof Huff & Prof Munk)

[smpark7]

This issue can be closed when Prof Huff and Prof Munk review and approve the final draft for this conference submission. The submission deadline is Jan 10 11.59pm CST.

I addressed the M&C reviewer comments listed in #6 and made several other changes to improve the flow.

The final draft is here: main.pdf

The latexdiff of the previous and current draft is here: diff.pdf

Summary of changes:

• Provided definitions of several key mathematical variables such as neutron flux
• Rearranged the model setup section to improve flow
• Clarified that the main goal of this work is to provide baseline neutronics verification, and that simulations with precursor movement will come in a later publication
• Bolded math/equations in table/figure headings
• Removed unnecessary or repeated URLs in the bibliography to cut paper length

Because figure 2 is no longer alongside many other figures explaining the meaning of the blue dots, I recommend including the blue dot in the legend or explaining in the caption that the dots are your simulation results.

Otherwise, looks great to me.

Thank you for including the diff in this issue. I think your overall improvements are good, and the sentence you added about this work being a baseline study without DNP movement was a good addition for the reviewer comments. I agree with Prof. Huff's comment on adding to the legend of Figure 2.

Great job!
