    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Li/Li/sub 2/ supersonic nozzle beam

    The characterization of a lithium supersonic nozzle beam was made using spectroscopic techniques. It is found that at a stagnation pressure of 5.3 kPa (40 torr) and a nozzle throat diameter of 0.4 mm the ground state vibrational population of Li/sub 2/ can be described by a Boltzmann distribution with T/sub v/ = 195 +- 30/sup 0/K. The rotational temperature is found to be T/sub r/ = 70 +- 20/sup 0/K by band shape analysis. Measurements by quadrupole mass spectrometer indicates that approximately 10 mole per cent Li/sub 2/ dimers are formed at an oven body temperature of 1370/sup 0/K n the supersonic nozzle expansion. This measured mole fraction is in good agreement with the existing dimerization theory
