Publication Policy

Acknowledgement guidelines and instrument references at SINQ

All publications that are produced based on results obtained at SINQ should be registered within the PSI publication repository DORA-PSI. Please follow the link 'Add Publication' from the DORA main menu. It is expected that PSI staff members acting as local contacts during your experiments at SINQ are mentioned as co-authors in any publication that results from data obtained at SINQ. In addition a certain acknowledgement statement is required from the PSI directorate to ensure the finding of the papers in bibliographic databases, see below.

All publications based on SINQ data should contain the following text part:

'This work is based on experiments performed at the Swiss spallation neutron source SINQ, Paul Scherrer Institute, Villigen, Switzerland.'
