Remove Numbers from Bibliography Items

Post by fastest »

Good morning,

I am experiencing the following problem and I wonder if anybody knows a possible solution.

I am using {thebibliography} environment to prepare an article and I enter the single entry using \bibitem. As example, the following code.

Code: Select all

\begin{thebibliography}{99}
  \bibitem{Askne} Askne J, Nordius H (1987) Estimation of tropospheric delay for microwave from surface weather data, Rad Sci, 22:379-386
\end{thebibliography}
It produces this text.
1. Askne J, Nordius H (1987) Estimation of tropospheric delay for microwave from surface weather data, Rad Sci, 22:379-386
Now, my problem is that I do not want the number in front of the bibliography entry to be printed at all. My wish would be to have the following text.
Askne J, Nordius H (1987) Estimation of tropospheric delay for microwave from surface weather data, Rad Sci, 22:379-386
Does anybody know a possible solution to that using \bibitem or even another approach?

I thank you very much for your support and I hope to hearing back from you soon.

Regards,
fastest

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

How are citations in the text going to be assigned correctly to the corresponding bibliography items then?
