A parameter to quantify dynamics of a researcher's scientific activity

Physics and Society 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

I propose the coefficient, tht_h, and its modification NtN_t which in a simple way reflect dynamics of scientific activity of an individual researcher. I determine tht_h as a time period (from some moment in the past till the present moment) during which papers responsible for 1/2 of the total citation index were published. Parameter NtN_t represents average of the citation index over this period: Nt=C.I./2thN_t={\mathrm{C.I.}}/2t_h.
