BibTex entry

Assuming one uses the bibliography style:

\bibliographystyle{apsrev4-1}

For standard bibliography display

@article{name48_1,
author = {A. Name and B. Name and C. {Al Name}},
title = {Title of the paper},
journal = {Journal of blabla},
volume = {8},
pages = {9},
year = {2048},
keywords = {theory,blabla},
url = {[insert doi link here]}
}

For arXiv entries

@misc{arxivName20,
author = {A. Name and B. Name},
title = {Title of the paper},
year = {2020},
HowPublished = {\url{[insert arXiv url here]}}
}

For cases where the volume number is not in bold (hack)

@article{name07_1,
author = {A. Name and B. Name and C. {Al Name}},
title = {Title of the paper},
journal = {Journal of blabla, \textbf{8}, 9 (2048)},
keywords = {theory,blabla},
url = {[insert doi link here]}
}

This works fine for notes using the bibliography style:

\bibliographystyle{unsrt}

For books

@book{gelfand61_b1,
author = {I. M. Gel'fand and G. E. Shilov and N. Ya. Vilenkin and M. I. Graev},
title = {Generalized {F}unctions. {V}ol. 1: {P}roperties and {O}perations},
publisher = {Academic Press, New York},
edition = {1st ed.},
year = {1964}
}

Note that first letters in the title must be surrounded by braces to stay in capital after processing. The url field can be added if a doi link is available.
