The relationship between the research performance of scientists and their position in co-authorship networks in three fields

作者:

Highlights:

• Statistics shows a less connected and more fragmented network than the experimental fields.

• There is a relationship between the position of scientists in co-authorship networks and their g-index.

• Authors with a high number of collaborators and/or strong ties tend to show a higher g-index.

• Playing a bridging role is not associated to the g-index of scientists.
