ShengBTE and thirdorder.py were originally developed at CEA Grenoble by

Wu Li
Jesús Carrete
Nebil A. Katcho
Natalio Mingo

The Quantum ESPRESSO backend code for thirdorder.py was mainly developed by

Antti J. Karttunen

who also contributed the ESPRESSO test data for ShengBTE and helped enhance the support for second-order force constants generated with ESPRESSO.

Mr. Guangzhao Qin contributed a patch to provide more detailed output from ShengBTE and estimate the effect of boundary scattering.

Dr. Youdi Kuang implemented time reversal symmetry.
