Use of PyCBC in Scientific Publications
=======================================

If you use any code from PyCBC in a scientific publication, then we ask that
it is cited in the following way:

::

    These results were generating using the PyCBC software package
    \cite{Canton:2014ena,Usman:2015kfa,Nitz:2017svb,pycbc-software}

For the citation ``pycbc-software``,  please use a bibtex entry and DOI for the
appropriate release of the PyCBC software (or the latest available release).
A bibtex key and DOI for each release is avaliable from `Zenodo <http://zenodo.org/>`_.
A key for the latest release is available at:
