May I submit the Accepted Manuscript or the Final Published Version of a subscription article to arXiv.org or another repository?

The Final Published Version / Version of Record of a subscription article cannot be shared online in any circumstances (including to a personal website, or any non-commercial repositories). The Named Authors can, however, deposit the Accepted Manuscript version of a subscription article on a non-commercial institutional or subject based repository, including arXiv.org, after the expiry of the 12 month post publication embargo period. When depositing the Accepted Manuscript, the Named Authors must ensure that any copyright notice and any cover sheet applied by IOP is not deleted or modified, the Accepted Manuscript is only made available under a CC BY-NC-ND licence, and the following wording is included: ‘This is the Accepted Manuscript version of an article accepted for publication in [NAME OF JOURNAL]. IOP Publishing Ltd is not responsible for any errors or omissions in this version of the manuscript or any version derived from it. The Version of Record is available online at [insert DOI].’
