Abstract

We considered the 5707 research papers published in ApJ, AJ, and PASP in 1952, 1962, 1972, 1982, and 1992. For each paper we noted the affiliations and, assuming that each of n authors should get credit for one n -1 paper for his/her institution, we determined the numbers of ppaers published by 38 pre-selected institutions, the remaining other U.S. institutions, and non-U.S. institutions. The 10 or 20 most productive institutions are listed for each year. In many cases the institutions with the largest staffs are at the top of the lists. Then we determined the numbers of AAs members at each institution and computed the mean numbers of papers per AAS member. We found that pure research organizations have the highest productivity per AAS member and average decrease as we progress to institituions whose staff members have many other than commitments in addition to research.

Statistics

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The sheer size of an article influences whether it is cited, as longer articles have more content that can be cited than shorter articles do.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
