Guidelines on how to use the name Simonyi Survey Telescope in the different Rubin Observatory products
2 Usage of the Simonyi Name¶
In general we we try not to use abbreviations which loose the name we intend to honor. Hence we should avoid ST and prefer Simonyi Telescope as a shorter name for the Simonyi Survey Telescope.
There are specific instances of use which we can consider:
Publications, Technotes, Presentations etc: we should use Simonyi Survey Telescope, no abbreviation like SST, no MT, no Main Telescope. If shortening is needed just use Simonyi, or the telescope
Slack Channels: #simonyi-nameofthe channel
Front-end such as LOVE, RubinTV … Use Simonyi Telescope or Simonyi
Code and github: due to the complexity we will leave “MT” as a prefix. These should be renamed when used in front-end to the extent possible.
There may be other cases not falling neatly in these categories. Always consider using the name Simonyi instead of using an abbreviation.
