Abstract: |
The Astrophysics Source Code Library (ASCL) is a free online registry
for source codes of interest to astronomers, astrophysicists, and planetary scientists. It
lists, and in some cases houses, software that has been used in research appearing in
or submitted to peer-reviewed publications. As of December 2023, it has over 3300
software entries and is indexed by NASA’s Astrophysics Data System (ADS) and Clarivate’s Web of Science.
In 2020, NASA created the Exoplanet Modeling and Analysis Center (EMAC).
Housed at the Goddard Space Flight Center, EMAC serves, in part, as a catalog and
repository for exoplanet research resources. EMAC has 240 entries (as of December
2023), 78% of which are for downloadable software.
This oral presentation covered the collaborative work the ASCL, EMAC, and ADS
are doing to increase the discoverability and citability of EMAC’s software entries and
to strengthen the ASCL’s ability to serve the planetary science community. It also
introduced two new projects, Virtual Astronomy Software Talks (VAST) and Exoplanet
Virtual Astronomy Software Talks (exoVAST), that provide additional opportunities for
discoverability of EMAC software resources. |
