The <Stan Development Team> is the collective author credited for Stan's statistical modeling manuals. The <Stan Reference Manual by Stan Development Team> documents the language and inference methods; the <Stan User's Guide by Stan Development Team> develops model construction and applied examples.
Its treatment of posterior analysis explains diagnostics such as effective <sample size> and split R-hat for <Markov chain Monte Carlo>. These assess features of finite sampled output and do not turn a finite run into a proof of exact <convergence>.<Stan Reference Manual by Stan Development Team>[Posterior Analysis, effective sample size and potential scale reduction]{ref}
