This study analyzes the Astrophysics research output in India from the year 1989-2016. The data was downloaded from web of science database which was maintained by Thomson Reuters. The findings of the study revealed that The Tata Institute of Fundamental Research has contributed 2725 records in astrophysics research during the study period of 1989-2016. This institute’s h index based local citation score is (LCS) 23 and h-index based on the local citation score excluding self- citations is (LCSX)15 and Global citation score (GCS) is 89.The time series analysis study shows the future trend of growth in astrophysics research output in India might take a decreasing trend during the years to come.

This study examined the research publications of the faculty of Thiagarajar College of Engineering (TCE), Madurai, Tamilnadu, India. Data for this study have been collected from the Scopus and web of science databases for 2014-2018. Among 1270 papers published and indexed in the Scopus for five years and 437 papers published and indexed in the web of science. This paper shows how to use an excel sheet for calculating the h-index, i-10 index, average citation per year, cited rate, percentage of cited and non-cited paper, real average citation, etc.… Apart from the above analysis, this paper finds the overlap publications of Scopus and Web of Science.

Astrophysics is a branch of space science that applies the laws of physics and chemistry to explain the birth, life and death of stars, planets, galaxies, nebulae and other objects in the universe. Astrophysics creates physical theories of small to medium-size structures in the universe. Astrophysicists seek to understand the universe and our place in it. At NASA, the goals of astrophysics are "to discover how the universe work, explore how it began and evolved, and search for life on planets around other stars." This study analyzes the Astrophysics research output in India from the year 1989-2014. The data was downloaded from web of science database which was maintained by Thomson Reuters. The findings of the study revealed that two authors has the maximum of contribution with 3673 (28.81%) publication followed by three authors with 2875 (22.55%).

UNSTRUCTURED We read with great interest the study by Grammes et al. on research output and international cooperation among countries during the COVID-19 pandemic. The paper is a quantitative study using scientometric analysis instead of a qualitative research using citation analysis. A total of 7,185 publications were extracted from Web of Science Core Collection (WoS) with keywords of “covid19 OR covid-19 OR sarscov2 OR sars-cov-2” as of July 4, 2020. We replicated a citation analysis study to extract abstracts from Pubmed Central(PMC) with similar keywords mentioned above and obtained 35,421 articles relevant to COVID-10 matching their corresponding number of citation in PMC. one hundred top-cited atricles were selected and compared on diagrams. Social network analysis combined with citation numbers in articles was performed to analyze international cooperation among countries. The results were shown on a world map instead of the circle diagram in the previous study. A Sankey diagram was applied to highlight entities(e.g., countries, article types, medical subject headings, and journals) with the most citations. Authors from Chian dominated citations in these 100 top-cited articles rather than the US in publications addressed in the previous study. Both visual representations of the world map and Sankey diagram were provided to readers with a better understanding of the research output and international cooperation among countries during the COVID-19 pandemic

The article is devoted to the study of the state and trends of the publishing activity of Ukrainian scientists and leading countries in the field of life sciences («Life sciences»). The Web of Science Core Collection (WoS CC), Journal Citation Report (JSR) and InCites, as well as classifications of scientific fields designed to structure the publication flow of scientific papers and journals in these information resources, are used for the research base – Web of Science Categories and Research Areas. The article presents the results of the author’s research on the publication indices of scientists of Ukraine and the leading countries of the world for the period 2008-2018 in the field of “Life Sciences” according to the international science-computer database of Web of Science. Conclusions about the growth of indicators of publication activity of scientific works in the field of “Life Sciences” are made. The tendency of a significant increase in their number in Ukraine has been revealed, but domestic studies do not represent all the areas of «Life Sciences» most popular in foreign scientists

Considerable advances have been made from diverse perspectives in rockburst research to guarantee the safety of deep underground activities. However, to date, few reviews have been made to systematically analyze the overall research status of rockburst. This study is aimed at providing a scientometric review on rockburst research in hard rock from 2000 to 2019. First, a total of 430 papers were collected from the Web of Science Core Collection database. Then, the CiteSpace software was adopted to conduct a scientometric analysis from five main aspects. Finally, the existing knowledge domains and future directions were discussed. Based on the results of this study, main countries, institutions, authors, and journals of rockburst research were revealed, and some important papers, hot topics, and evolutionary trends were found out. This review contributes to the integrated knowledge map of rockburst research in hard rock and provides researchers a valuable and in-depth understanding in this domain.

Scientometrics study is one of the most efficient methods of quantitative evaluation of the scientific publication. Coronaviruses are one of the common viruses affect the human and animals some time. There is 7 type of corona already in existence, but the recent Coronavirus called novel corona (Covid19) which spreads among human rapidly. This study is to know the recent research publication of Coronavirus from the web of science, especially after December 2019, where the real spreads started and impact the world economy due to lock down. The data for this study is retrieved from the web of science for the year of 2018, 2019, and 2020 (till March). This study is an attempt to know the publication pattern, year-wise growth of publications, country-wise research output, and top-cited paper. Also, this paper is focusing on the research output of China and Wuhan University in the publications and the Wuhan University’s participation in this research publication during the period.

Schinus terebinthifolius (Anacardiaceae) is among the medicinal species native to Brazil, known as mastic-red and mastic-pepper, whose stem bark is used to fight inflammation of various origins, as it has anti-inflammatory and healing properties. The objective of this study is to explore trends in the publications portrayed on the species S. terebinthifolius, analyzing axes such as time, countries, journals, impact factors and citations, the scientometric approach was used to summarize all the studies on S. terebinthifolius in a single article. 475 publications were used with an average number of 20.8 publications per year, encompassing 68 research areas and published in 220 different journals, covering all retractions visible on the Web of Science from 2001 until May 2021. The most productive country was Brazil with 271 articles, followed by the USA with 105 articles. The methods and results of this study can be applied to continually understand the nature of research on the species.
