My (incomplete) notes on Preparing an Astronomy paper

 My notes on preparing an ApJ paper (someone who has never done it before).


Setup latex:

-astrobetter latex wiki: http://www.astrobetter.com/wiki/tiki-index.php?page=LaTex
-latexbibtex tools worth knowing

Then, look here for setting up Bibtex entries.

Then, to get started , here's a good overview from Astrobites.  For ApJ, consult AAS author instructions.
