Plenty of redback_surrogates
models build on other open-source packages. The appropriate citation if using such models in scientific publication is available as an attribute to the model.
For example,
from redback_surrogates.kilonova_models import kasen_bns_kilonovanet_spectra.prior
import numpy as np
citation = kasen2017.citation
Here citation will be a url to the NASA ads page for the paper describing the model/surrogate.
Please cite this paper and the paper describing redback
if using this model in a scientific publication.
Note that the responsibility of citing the appropriate papers lies with the user.
In several cases, the citation will be redback, in which case,
only a citation to redback
paper is necessary.
Although we recommend periodically checking the citation in the latest redback_surrogates
release as some models are often updated.
