1112 authors for a space mission 🛰️ reference paper seems ... adequate 🤷🏽😯😁
We, the @ec_euclid will publish five main reference papers aimed at the astronomy community about the #ESAEuclid mission, the #Euclid instruments, both cosmology and other astronomy science possibilities, as well as the cosmological simulations used to test all procedures.
Available coming Tuesday, 23 May, 12:00 CEST (and on arXiv a few hours later). Stay tuned!
Coordination of 100 to 1000 co-authors is actually quite a logistical feat. For this the @ec_euclid has a dedicated membership and author database, to keep contact info and affiliations up to date, and to manage the author lists of already more than 100 publications.
The upcoming release this week has still required a lot of work behind the scenes.
