Complete and Abbreviated Form

This denotes how much information is going to be included in the resulting citation. Currently JACoW accepts both complete and abbreviated forms, and it is up to the author to decide which they wish to use. Though if page length is not an issue the complete form is preferable. To toggle between these two forms click of the Use Complete Form, or Use Abbreviated Form button below the citation.

Example of Complete and Abbreviated Form

If Proceeding are Unpublished

A button will be displayed to allow you to toggle between displaying the For use at same conference and Not for use for this conference. This is very important as it will format the citation to suite the appropriate situation.

The difference between the two citation forms ac be seen below;

This Conference
R. Auchettl, R. T. Dowd, and Y. E. Tan, “Beam Dynamics, Injection and Impedance Studies for the Proposed Single Pulsed Nonlinear Injection Kicker at the Australian Synchrotron”, presented at the 10th Int. Particle Accelerator Conf. (IPAC'19), Melbourne, Australia, May 2019, paper TUZZPLS2, this conference.
Unpublished Not at Same Conference
R. Auchettl, R. T. Dowd, and Y. E. Tan, “Beam Dynamics, Injection and Impedance Studies for the Proposed Single Pulsed Nonlinear Injection Kicker at the Australian Synchrotron”, presented at the 10th Int. Particle Accelerator Conf. (IPAC'19), Melbourne, Australia, May 2019, paper TUZZPLS2.
For Example: While writing this help section, IPAC'19 is to be held in 3 months time, and IBIC'18 has not yet published though the conference has been held in September 2018.
If I am preparing a paper for IPAC'19, I can find citations for papers not yet presented at IPAC'19, and will make sure that Blue Banner is shown as per the table above for the "this conference" to be used in the reference. If I am including a reference from IBIC'18 then the Pale Orange Banner is shown as per the table above.

Copy and Paste Word Citation

Once the citations have been pasted into a Word document you must reorder them to match the order they are cited in you paper, and replace the 'n' with the correct reference number. Further more you can correct the style to suit 1 of 3 JACoW_Reference styles.

  1. JACoW_Reference when <= 9 Refs
  2. JACoW_Reference #1-9 when >= 10 Refs
  3. JACoW_Reference #10 onwards

This ensures references are indented correctly in the reference list.
