Citing FARGO3D¶

A proper way of referencing the FARGO3D code in a publication is by citing the following reference paper:
- Benítez-Llambay & Masset, 2016, FARGO3D: A New GPU-Oriented MHD Code, ApJS, 223, 11.
  
  The bibtex entry for the main code paper is:
```
@article{0067-0049-223-1-11,
author={Pablo Benítez-Llambay and Frédéric S. Masset},
title={FARGO3D: A New GPU-oriented MHD Code},
journal={The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series},
volume={223},
number={1},
pages={11},
url={http://stacks.iop.org/0067-0049/223/i=1/a=11},
year={2016}
}
```
  Here is a link to the ADS version of the bibtex record with non-accented characters.

If the hydrodynamics version of the code is used, and the orbital advection algorithm is used (e.g. with setups fargo, p3diso, among others) then the publication should mention that the code uses the orbital advection algorithm of:

Masset, 2000, FARGO: A fast eulerian transport algorithm for differentially rotating disks, A&AS, 141, 165.

The bibtex entry for this paper is:

@ARTICLE{2000A&AS..141..165M,
author = {{Masset}, F.},
title = "{FARGO: A fast eulerian transport algorithm for differentially rotating
disks}",
journal = {Astronomy and Astrophysics Supplement Series},
year = 2000,
month = Jan,
volume = {141},
pages = {165-173},
doi = {10.1051/aas:2000116},
adsurl = {https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/\#abs/2000A&AS..141..165M},
}

If the magnetohydrodynamics version of the code is used, and the orbital advection algorithm is used (e.g. with the setup mri), then the publication should mention that the code also uses, for the advection of the magnetic field, the orbital advection algorithm of:

Stone & Gardiner, 2010, Implementation Of The Shearing Box Approximation In Athena, ApJS, 189, 142.

The bibtex entry for this paper is:

@ARTICLE{2010ApJS..189..142S,
author = {{Stone}, James M. and {Gardiner}, Thomas A.},
title = "{Implementation of the Shearing Box Approximation in Athena}",

primaryClass = {astro-ph.IM},
adsurl = {https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/\#abs/2010ApJS..189..142S},
}

If the Multifluid version of the code is used (i.e., NFLUIDS>1), the publication should mention the reference paper:

If the Dust diffusion module is used, the publication should cite:

If the the Hall effect and/or ambipolar diffusion are included in the Induction equation, the publication should cite:
