Bibliography of the Exotic High Enery Physics theory group at FIAS

This bibliopgrahy shall cover a number of papers referenced by a number of papers written by members of the Exotic HEP group at Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies. It is not meant to be exhaustive. This repository is an attemp to start with a structured bibtex file which can be extended for future work.

How to use this bibliography in papers

If you don't use git otherwise, go to the directory where you write the paper, type

git clone https://github.com/exotic-hep/exotic-hep-references.git .

You can then just use and modify the bibliography as usual:

pdflatex example.tex
pdflatex example.tex
bibtex example
pdflatex example.tex

If you want to share the changes in the bibtex files with your colleagues, type

git commit -m "Adding new references..." exotic-hep-references.bib
git pull --no-edit && git push

In case you already use git to manage your paper, you are encouraged to softlink the bibliography from another directory:

git clone git@github.com:exotic-hep/exotic-hep-references.git
git clone wherever/your-paper
cd your-paper
ln -s ../exotic-hep-references/exotic-hep-references.bib
# Proceed as usual

Rules for modifying the bibtex file

• Never remove an entry. If you remove an entry, existing papers won't compile any more.
• Never remove fields from entries. Again, existing papers won't compile properly any more.
• Human-readable citation names are prefered over ADS or SPIRES conventions (i.e. Einstein1905 is good)
• Outdated entries may be updated (adding new fields or informations)
• If an entry doesn't look nice, don't change the entry but change the bibtex style in your document. If you cannot live with an existing entry, duplicate it with a new name.
