The paper analysis authorship patterns and collaborative research of oncology research in Indiaas reflected by the research papers listed in Web of Science database for a period of 11 years from 2005-2015. The increased trend towards multiple authorship is predominant as compare to single authorship in case ofoncology in India.In the study, the degree of collaboration was not a constant value, it reveals varies of 0.03 to 0.16 percent and the mean quality as 0.09. The analysis found that single author papers maintained a low profile among oncology research scientists and the multi authorship pattern is expanding slowly in Indian oncology research.

<div><p><em>Collaboration trend among researchers can take many forms. One of the most tangible forms of this collaboration is co-authorship. Over the</em><em> decades the multiple-author publication, frequently referred to as a co-authored publication, has been used as a basic counting unit to measure collaborative activity.  In order to identify the collaborative trend in speech, language and hearing science three leading journals such as Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing Research, published by American Speech and Hearing Association (ASHA), Asia Pacific Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing and Journal of the All India Institute of Speech and Hearing (JAIISH). A total of 905 articles were published in these three journals during the period of 2009-2013 has been considered for the study. Scienctometric tools such as Authorship pattern Collaborative Author Index, Degree of Collaboration. Collaboration Index, Collaborative Coefficient and Modified Collaborative Coefficient, Local collaborative index, Domestic collaborative index, International collaborative Index were used. The study shows that there exists collaborative research in speech, language and hearing sciences journals irrespective of the origin of the journal. The local collaboration of authors was more rather than domestic and international collaboration among the authors.  The study also shows that there is no significant difference in collaboration in the domain of speech or language or hearing and Local collaboration persist in the domain of speech or language or hearing.</em></p></div>

The ultimate purpose of the present study is to explore the bibliometric analysis of the LIBRI: International Journal of Libraries and Information Services journal during the period of 2011-2015. The analysis covers sundry features of the journal such as its yearly output of articles, subject distributions, geographical distributions of authors, authorship patterns, relative growth rate and double time of publication. The result concludes that 140 research articles were pubished  in the LIBRI journal during the stipulated span i.e. 2011-2015, in which 63 (45%) articles were written by a single author whereas 77 (55%) articles were multi-authored. In the study, the average degree of author collaboration was 0.55 and it ranged from 0.57 to 0.58.Keywords: LIBRI. Bibliometric analysis. Authorship pattern. Author productivity.

The chapter brings out the results of a bibliometric analysis of the journal titled Asian Journal of Diary and Food Research for the period from 2011 to 2015. The data was downloaded from the journal's website. This study aims at analyzing the research output performance of co-authorship index and collaborative index. The analysis covers mainly the publication of articles, year-wise distribution of articles, degree of collaboration, institution-wise distribution, authorship pattern, etc. The results show the merits and weakness of the journal which will be helpful for its further development.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to study and analyse the authorship pattern, degree of collaboration, prepare list of prolific authors and test Lotka’s law of scientific productivity in spacecraft technology research. Design/methodology/approach – Data are collected from the print versions of three journals in the field of spacecraft technology for the period 2001-2011. In all 154 volumes containing 1,907 papers have been analysed, and data are presented in different table headings. Findings – Study reveals that 4,355 authors have contributed 1,907 papers. Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets has published maximum (1,487) number of papers during the study period. Multi-authored papers with 87.15 per cent of contributions have dominated this field of research. Journal of Spacecraft Technology has recorded highest degree of collaboration of 0.90. James M. Longuski has published 20 papers in Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets during the period 2001-2011. Lotka’s law of scientific productivity is tested and conforms only partially. Research limitations/implications – Study is restricted only for the period 2001-2011, and the data are collected from the print versions of three journals in the field of spacecraft technology research. Originality/value – As far as space science and technology is concerned, there are not many bibliometric studies reported in the published literature. The present study will add value to the bibliometrics literature and provide publishing trends in spacecraft technology research.
