[Clascomment] OPT-IN: Precise Determination of the Deuteron Spin Structure at Low to Moderate Q2 with CLASand Extraction of the Neutron Contribution

[Volker Burkert]

Dear lead authors,

 Congratulations! This is a very well written account of one of the jewels of the CLAS science program. 
 We can all be proud of this paper. 


 I have only a couple of really small comments.

1) As a german I cannot let on line 518 "Bremsstrahlung" be " misspelled as "Brehmsstrahlung". 
2) Figure 4: I suggest to adjust the horizontal axis for the 3 lower Q2 panels to get rid of the strange ending of the solid line. 
3) Figure 6: The horizontal axis of the top and middle panels should be labeled as they are different from the axis used in
    the bottom panel.  
4) Line 771: I suggest to use the official PDG notations N(1520)3/2- and N(1535)1/2-  for D13(1520) and S11(1535). 
    This will also make it consistent with the standard use of \Delta(1232)3/2+ [instead of P33(1232)] on line 763.   
5) Figure 17: Please consider removing the two green lines. This expansion makes no sense whatsoever as is obvious from
    the huge jump going from the p^3 to the p^4 term.  

Best regards,
Volker
