How to Cite SIGNALS
We request that the following acknowledgement be included in any paper using data or software from the SIGNALS data releases:
This research was based on observations obtained at the CFHT, which is operated from the summit of Mauna Kea by the National Research Council of Canada, the Institut National des Sciences de l’Univers of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique of France, and the University of Hawaii. The authors wish to recognize and acknowledge the very significant cultural role that the summit of Mauna Kea has always had within the indigenous Hawaiian community. The authors are most grateful to have the opportunity to conduct observations from this mountain.
The observations were obtained with SITELLE, a joint project between Université Laval, ABB-Bomem, Université de Montréal, and the CFHT, with funding support from the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI), the National Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), Fonds de Recherche du Québec – Nature et Technologies (FRQNT), and CFHT.
The collaboration is grateful to the FRQNT, CFHT, the Canada Research Chair program, the National Science foundation NSF – 2109124, Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada NSERC – RGPIN-2023-03487, the Swedish Research Council, the Swedish National Space Board, the Royal Society, and the Newton Fund via the award of a Royal Society-Newton Advanced Fellowship (NAF\R1\180403), FAPESC, CNPq, FAPESP (2014/11156-4), FAPESB (7916/2015), and CONACyT (CB2015-254132).
