Carnot Efficiency of Publication

08/27/2017

∙

This paper analyzes publication efficiency in terms of Hirsch-index or h-index and total citations, with an analogy to the Carnot efficiency used in thermodynamics. Such publication efficiency, with typical value of 30 utilized to normalize the research output judgment, favoring quality outputs in reduced quantity, which is currently lacking in many discipline.
