# Citing JeansPy and its dependencies

Until a paper and archival release DOI are available, cite the repository and
the exact commit used. Do not cite an unpublished manuscript as an accepted
paper. A suitable development-software reference is:

> Horigome, S., JeansPy, development source at commit
> `<commit used in your analysis>`,
> https://github.com/gomeshun/jeanspy.

Cite the scientific methods and software actually used in your analysis.
The [categorized references](references.md) explain the role of each work and
provide a downloadable BibTeX file. The axisymmetric bibliography includes
the underlying Jeans formalism and the subsequent dwarf-galaxy applications.
