The Influence of Pressure on the Formation of FM/AF Configurations in LSMO Films: A Monte Carlo Approach
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The paper is a avery careful study on the effect od the pressure on LSMO thin films, analysing its effect on different kinds of interaction . It is well written, discussion and conclusions are supported by obtained results as well as by numerous articles , including experimental ones, of other authors. I conclusion I recommend its publication in the present form.

Reviewer 2 Report
The authors present the Monte Carlo simulation to identify the magnetic properties of thin films. They used the generic parameters, and then mechanical constants, e.g., Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio are employed to study the pressure effect.
In total, the paper is well-written and is suitable for publication.
The authors are suggested to update the introduction by introducing the recently published papers using Monte Carlo simulations in nanoelectronics and mechanics. To that end, the following papers are suggested:
