This package implements the bibliography style of the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society (MNRAS) in biblatex
.
While there is an official MNRAS document class, it only works with natbib for the bibliography management. The journal asks for an author (year) format and a detailed description is provided in the [Instructions to Authors](https://academic.oup.com/mnras/pages/general_instructions?login=false#6.3\%20References\%20and\%20citations). The package is intended to be used with the bibentries generated from the *SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System* ([ads](https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/)). Those entries include the fields
adsurl,
eprintand
doi`. They are used to create links to the respective sites which are set behind the journal and volume/page part of the reference. The style can be loaded with
\usepackage[style=biblatex-mnras]{biblatex}
This repository also contains an example document biblatex-mnras.pdf to showcase the style.
So far, not all entry types are implemented. In the case of in-proceedings and books, multiple publications from the same author in one year may cause problems. The code was only tested with biber
as the backend.
