(1) Papers containing data from the Gemini telescopes (e.g. an ApJ paper) should include the following general acknowledgment as a footnote on the first page or in the last section before the references:

Based on observations obtained at the Gemini Observatory, which is operated by the
Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under a cooperative agreement
with the NSF on behalf of the Gemini partnership: the National Science Foundation (United
States), the National Research Council (Canada), CONICYT (Chile), the Australian Research 
Council (Australia), Ministério da Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação (Brazil) and
Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación Productiva (Argentina).

and, if appropriate, please also acknowledge the provision of visiting instrument(s) as described in the relevant "documents" web pages for that instrument.

If you are using Latex, we provide the following to insert directly into your tex document:

    Based on observations obtained at the Gemini Observatory, which is operated by the 
    Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under a cooperative agreement 
    with the NSF on behalf of the Gemini partnership: the National Science Foundation 
    (United States), the National Research Council (Canada), CONICYT (Chile), the Australian 
    Research Council (Australia), Minist\'{e}rio da Ci\^{e}ncia, Tecnologia e Inova\c{c}\~{a}o 
    (Brazil) and Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnolog\'{i}a e Innovaci\'{o}n Productiva (Argentina).

Authors are also asked to give the identification number ("Program ID") of the program(s) under which their data were obtained, e.g. GN-2004A-Q-10, or GS-2003B-C-1, or GN-2002B-SV-78 or GS-2005A-DD-96. We recommend that this reference to the Program ID be made in the acknowledgement section at the end of the paper or in the Observations section of the paper.

The "documents" sections also list reference(s) that should be cited to describe facility and visiting instruments.

(2) Papers based on Gemini-Subaru exchange time:

for observations from Subaru:

Based [in part] on data collected at Subaru Telescope, via the time exchange program 
between Subaru and the Gemini Observatory. The Subaru Telescope is operated by the 
National Astronomical Observatory of Japan.

for observations from Gemini:

Based [in part] on data obtained at the Gemini Observatory via the time exchange program 
between Gemini and the Subaru Telescope. The Gemini Observatory is operated by the 
Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under a cooperative agreement 
with the NSF on behalf of the Gemini partnership: the National Science Foundation 
(United States), the National Research Council (Canada), CONICYT (Chile), the Australian 
Research Council (Australia), Ministério da Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação (Brazil) and 
Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación Productiva (Argentina).

(3) Papers published about Gemini (for example, SPIE papers on an instrument) should have the following acknowledgement as a footnote on the first page or in the last section before the references:

The Gemini Observatory is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in 
Astronomy, Inc., under a cooperative agreement with the NSF on behalf of the Gemini partnership: 
the National Science Foundation (United States), the National Research Council (Canada), 
CONICYT (Chile), the Australian Research Council (Australia), Ministério da Ciência, 
Tecnologia e Inovação (Brazil), and Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnología e 
Innovación Productiva (Argentina).

(4) Papers authored or co-authored by Gemini staff not using Gemini data should acknowledge funding from the agencies by using the following statement in the acknowledgement section at the end of their paper:

Supported by the Gemini Observatory, which is operated by the Association of Universities 
for Research in Astronomy, Inc., on behalf of the international Gemini partnership of Argentina, 
Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, and the United States of America.

Please note that, regardless of placement in the author list (as in, first author or 42nd), this credit line must be included.

Gemini Science Archive Use Acknowledgement
