LGS-AO author list policies

TAC Allocated Science

There is no requirement to include any members of the engineering team on the author list of a paper based on data taken during TAC allocated Science time.
Here are the two reference papers for Keck LGS-AO: We would prefer that you not include individual team members unless they are actually involved in the analysis of the observations. Some team members interact more closely with observers than others, but including them as authors would slight those whose contributions are less visible. If you would like to include the team in the acknowledgements, please contact us for the list of individuals involved.
