Abstract
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.
本研究分析了1989-2016年印度天体物理学研究成果。这些数据是从汤森路透维护的web of science数据库中下载的。研究结果显示,在1989年至2016年的研究期间,塔塔基础研究所在天体物理学研究中贡献了2725条记录。该研究所基于本地引用得分的h指数为LCS 23,基于本地引用得分(不包括自引)的h指数为LCSX 15,全球引用得分(GCS)为89。时间序列分析研究表明,印度天体物理学研究产出的未来增长趋势可能在未来几年呈下降趋势。
