Citing astrobase

Released versions of astrobase are archived at the Zenodo repository. Zenodo provides a DOI that can be cited for each specific version. The following bibtex entry for astrobase v0.3.8 may be useful as a template. You can substitute in values of month, year, version, doi, and url for the version of astrobase you used for your publication.

@misc{wbhatti_astrobase,
  author       = {Waqas Bhatti and
                  Luke G. Bouma and
                  Joshua Wallace},
  title        = {\texttt{astrobase}},
  month        = feb,
  year         = 2018,
  version      = {0.3.8},
  publisher    = {Zenodo},
  doi          = {10.5281/zenodo.1185231},
  url          = {https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1185231}
}

Alternatively, the following bibtex entry can be used for all versions of astrobase (the DOI will always resolve to the latest version):

@misc{wbhatti_astrobase,
  author       = {Waqas Bhatti and
                  Luke G. Bouma and
                  Joshua Wallace},
  title        = {\texttt{astrobase}},
  month        = oct,
  year         = 2017,
  publisher    = {Zenodo},
  doi          = {10.5281/zenodo.1011188},
  url          = {https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1011188}
}
