    The priority for ideas and philosophy related to "Network Theory" have been traced back and documented by Braun(2004),and credit goes to Karinthy(1929).The IT has empowered to realise it, as the most practical phenomena and it is no more a humour. The OAI (Open Archives Initiatives)and ACIS (Academic Contributor Information System)are progressive in the direction ,which may lead to realise the "Collective Genius" at global level. Focus of present study is on Author-Self-Archiving (A-S-A)Metadata of the 983 Eprints in the Live Archives of the E-LIS (EPrints of Library and Information Science),which were approved till 7th July 2004.The A-S-A Metadata was used for librametric analysis. Self-explanatory bibliographics are illustrated.The highlights include: Conference papers (34%); highest approval, June 2004 (28%); published archives (76%);not refereed (52%); not in public domain (60%); highest self-archiving-author (De Robbio, Antonella).The Nos. of EPrints having single JITA domain specifications were: Theoretical and general aspects of libraries and information(27); Information use and sociology of information(80);Users,literacy and reading(13);Libraries as physical collections(30);Publishing and legal issues(57);Management(13);Industry, profession and education(36);Information sources, supports, channels(113) ; Information treatment for information services, Information functions and techniques (101); Technical services libraries, archives and museums(25); Housing technologies(1); Information technology and library technology(92); and Inter-domainery (395) i.e. having specifications of two or more than two JITA classes

    Quantitative and qualitative analysis with graphic representation of the publication productivity of a scientist facilitates easy and clear perception about the work of a scientist. Bhabha’s scientific work spanned over more than three decades (1933-1967) during which he published 104 publications, which could be classified into nine fields: Interaction of Radiation with Matter (4), Quantum Electrodynamics (5), Mathematical Physics (2), Cosmic Ray Physics (18), Elementary Particle Physics (14), Field Theory (15), General Physics (2), Nuclear Physics (4) and General (40). The highest number of publications (6) were published in 1941, 1945 and 1964 respectively. The average number of publications published per year was 3.05. His productivity coefficient was 0.05 which is a clear indicates that his publication productivity was quite consistent throughout his scientific career. He was single author in 79 of his publications and the main author in 24 publications indicates that he always preferred to work himself and lead the team as ‘mentor’. Bhabha had 22 collaborators during the period. Team of research collaborators working with a successful scientist documents the sociological aspect of history of science while generating knowledge by a leader in a domain. Bhabha became a citable author in 1937. Bhabha received 1211 citations to his 30 publications out of 104 publications. Out of 104, 74 publications did not receive any citations. Out of 74 publications, 40 publications dealt subjects mainly of general interest. Bhabha’s 86.66 percent of cited publications received their first citations within four years of their publication indicates that his publications were noticed immediately and had direct impact among the fellow researchers working all over the world. His overall citation rate was 11.64 per cited publication. The highest citations 389 were received to the domain ‘Cosmic ray physics’. The highest number of citations received were 45 in 1938. His self-citations were only 24 (1.98%) and citations by others were 1187 (98.02%). The highest self citations were six in 1946. Bhabha’s mean diachronous self-citation rate was 1.98. The highest citation rate 28.4 was to the domain ‘Quantum electrodynamics. His single authored publications have received the highest number 863 (71.26%) of citations. Bhabha’s five publications have been cited more than 100 times each. His publications have been cited by the authors working in various diverse fields like nuclear physics, mathematical physics, instrumentation, optics, geophysics and geochemistry, condensed matter physics, applied physics, electrical and electronic engineering, mechanical engineering etc., indicating a very diverse influence and impact of Bhabha’s publications. Bhabha’s publications have also been cited by the Nobel laureates like V. L. Ginzberg, Wolfgang Pauli, H. A. Bethe, M. Born, W. Bothe, E. P. Wigner, H. Yukawa, P. M. S. Blackett and C. N. Yang which is an indication of his originality of ideas and high quality of publications

    Sperchon cf. indicus N. Kumar, K. Kumar & Pesic, 2007 (Figs. 8–14) Material examined. Buthan: Pele La, 01.iii. 2002, 3200 m asl., one female (ZMAN), dissected and slide mounted in Hoyer's fluid. Morphology. Female: Idiosoma (ventral view: Fig. 9) L 862, W 669. One pair of fused dorsocentral plates (Dc- 3) (Fig. 8). Coxal field: L between anterior end of first coxae and posterior end of fourth coxae 428; L of genital valves 155; genital valves not covering the genital acetabula; posterior acetabula rounded; L of acetabula 1–3: 58-65 - 33. Capitulum (Fig. 13) L 218; chelicera (Fig. 14) L 232, H 56, L/H ratio 4.1, basal segment L 167, claw L 68, ratio chelicerae basal segment/claw L 2.5; palp (Fig. 12) total L 560, dL and %L (in parentheses, given as % of total L): P- 1 25 (4.5), P- 2 128 (22.9), P- 3 163 (29.1), P- 4 200 (35.7), P- 5 44 (7.9); P- 2 /P- 4 ratio 0.64; Ambulacrum (Fig. 11) with slightly developed claw blade, claws with clawlet. L of IV–L (Fig. 10) segments: IV – 125, 125, 139, 259, 265, 219. Remarks. Due to the presence of glandularia on Cx- 3, P- 2 with a long ventrodistal projection, and excretory pore surrounded by sclerotized ring, the specimen from Bhutan shows a general conformity with Sperchon indicus Kumar et al. Differences (in parentheses data taken from Kumar et al. 2007) are found in its major idiosoma and gnathosoma dimensions (e.g., S. indicus idiosoma L 694, genital valves L 124, capitulum L 158–181, palp total L 515–544). Furthermore the specimen from Bhutan has P- 4 less elongated and the claw blade less developed (strongly developed in S. indicus – see Kumar et al. 2007). The variability of further specimens from Bhutan needs to be known and studies on male specimens of S. indicus are necessary before we can assess the taxonomic status of this specimen. Distribution. India. New for Bhutan.Published as part of Pesic, Vladimir & Smit, Harry, 2007, First records of water mites (Acari: Hydrachnidia) from Bhutan, with description of two new species, pp. 45-56 in Zootaxa 1613 on pages 47-50, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17899

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
