Required Acknowledgements
The following statement of acknowledgement has been constructed in accordance with the MWA membership policy, and should be used in all MWA collaboration papers:
This scientific work makes use of the Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory, operated by CSIRO. We acknowledge the Wajarri Yamatji people as the traditional owners of the Observatory site. Support for the operation of the MWA is provided by the Australian Government (NCRIS), under a contract to Curtin University administered by Astronomy Australia Limited. This work was supported by resources provided by the Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre with funding from the Australian Government and the Government of Western Australia.
Required Authors (Builder's Lists)
The MWA recognizes the contributions of many team members to the project through a required author list for all academic journal articles. The list of required authors changes with time in accordance with the MWA Board's intention to eventually eliminate required authors from MWA-related publications as the telescope increasingly becomes an operational instrument. Several required author lists have been used at different times in the project history:
| Publication proposed: | MWA Configuration | Author List (tex templates) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 January 2022 onwards | Phase III | No required authors, with the exception of individual science theme group policies, or Phase II flagship papers identified by the Project Scientists and then approved by the Board. |
| 1 January 2019 - 31 December 2021 | Phase II | Authors from this author list can opt-in to be a publication co-author. |
| 1 October 2016 - 31 December 2018 | Phase II | Use this author list. |
| 19 June 2015 - 30 September 2016 | Phase I | No required authors except for as determined by individual science theme group policies. |
| 29 September 2014 - 18 June 2015 | Phase I | Use this author list. |
| 18 February 2014 - 28 September 2014 | Phase I | Use this author list. |
| 21 June 2013 - 17 February 2014 | Phase I | Use this author list. |
| August 2012 - 20 June 2013 | MWA Commissioning Period | Use the original author list. |
