Abstract
Tau neutrino is one of the least known particle of Standard Model; there are only few measurements with a limited statistics. The DONUT experiment first reported the tau neutrino interaction cross-section but their measurement suffers from large systematic error of more than $50\%$ which is mainly due to uncertainty in the tau neutrino flux prediction. The tau neutrino cross section is an essential ingredient in neutrino experiments and its precise measurement would enable a search for new physics effects such as testing the Lepton Universality in neutrino interactions. The main goal of the DsTau experiment is to measure an inclusive differential cross-section of a $D_s$ production with a consecutive decay to tau lepton in p-A interactions at the CERN-SPS. The measurement of DsTau will reduce the systematic uncertainty in tau neutrino interaction cross-section to $10\%$ level. The results from the pilot run and the prospect for physics runs in 2021-2022 will be discussed.

Report
This is a nicely written proceeding with some very interesting results. I have a few minor comments:
- Please make sure the correct template is used. The header should have the page number and section name, instead of journal name and "Submission"
- In proton Beam-Dump experiments","
- signal event topology is quite unique","
- preciece -> precise
- particles/cm^2 -> \mathrm{particles}/cm^2
- h/layer -> \mathrm{layer}
