Abstract
We present a custom SQL-powered database of the
astronomical publications
contained in the NASA Astrophysics Data
System (http://adsabs.harvard.edu).
Most of the several million
records published between 1950 and 2011 comprise
structured
information about titles, abstracts, keywords, and authors
with
their affiliations, together with the references to another
publications.
SQL engine easily allows to obtain statistically
significant estimates of an
arbitrary bibliometric indicators,
either for individual researchers, or for
their communities (e.g.
national) selected by any of the number of
available criteria. In
this talk we analyze several interesting metrics of
publication
activity, poorly studied before, as well as discuss
quantitative
differences between well-known research communities.Paper ID: P169
