Acknowledgement Information

If you write a paper that reports measurements using the MACS, please be sure to include this acknowledgement to the NSF, and to NIST

This work utilized facilities supported in part by the National Science Foundation under Agreement No. DMR-0944772.

Please also include a reference to the following paper describing the MACS

"MACS-a new high intensity cold neutron spectrometer at NIST" by J. A. Rodriguez, D. M. Adler, P. C. Brand, C. Broholm, J. C. Cook, C. Brocker, R. Hammond, Z. Huang, P. Hundertmark, J. W. Lynn, N. C.

In addition, the following (or similar) acknowledgement is expected to appear in all publications of work done at the NCNR that do not explicitly have a coauthor from the NCNR.

We acknowledge the support of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, U.S. Department of Commerce, in providing the neutron research facilities used in this work.

Please be aware that all papers with NIST coauthors must be reviewed and approved by the Washington Editorial Review Board (WERB). Members of WERB are concerned not only with scientific merit but with three specific matters: measurement uncertainties, the use of SI units, and brand names.
