Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
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
In vivo incorporation of copper into the iron-exchangeable and manganese-exchangeable superoxide dismutase from Propionibacterium shermanii. Amino acid sequence and identity of the protein moieties.
Propionibacterium shermanii, an aerotolerant anaerobe, produces an iron-containing or a manganese-containing superoxide dismutase, depending on the metal supplied in the culture medium [Meier, B., Barra, D., Bossa, F., Calabrese, L. & Rotilio, G. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 13977-13980]. In this study, we demonstrate in vivo incorporation of copper into an active superoxide-dismutase protein when iron and manganese are absent from the growth medium. Superoxide dismutases containing either iron, manganese or copper were isolated from P. shermanii, their complete amino acid sequences were determined and the identity of their protein moieties was established. The polypeptide chain is made up of 201 amino acid residues, corresponding to a molecular mass of 22.6 kDa. From sedimentation equilibrium experiments, the native protein shows a molecular mass of approximately 86 kDa and therefore consists of four identical subunits. The primary structure was compared with the structure of other Fe-superoxide dismutases and Mn-superoxide dismutases, in particular those possessing a strict metal cofactor specificity
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods

Spin-resolved core and valence electron photoemission from non-epitaxially grown Pb layers on Pt(111)
Vogt B, Schmiedeskamp B, Heinzmann U. Spin-resolved core and valence electron photoemission from non-epitaxially grown Pb layers on Pt(111). Vacuum. 1990;41(4-6):1118-1120.The core and valence levels of Pb adsorbates on Pt(111) have been studied by means of spin, angle and energy-resolved photoemission with circularly polarized synchrotron radiation of BESSY. For an eight layer Stranski-Krastanov grown Pb adsorbate (which is thus non-epitaxial) the d core level peaks show a spin-orbit splitting of 2.7 eV and no shift with photon energy. Spin-resolved photoemission for normal light incidence and normal electron emisson from the 5d5/2 level reveals a mj splitting in addition to the spin-orbit splitting and in addition to the core level shifts known. The valence levels were studied with photon energies of about 12 eV. Two peaks corresponding to the 6p3/2 and 6p1/2-derived levels could be detected for the highly symmetrical setup of normal light incidence and normal electron emission. Off normal electron emission from the 6p3/2-derived level yields the opposite sign polarization component parallel to the photon spin when compared to the normal electron emission results. This is in agreement with earlier photoionization studies of free Pb atoms
