In many areas of physics and chemistry, the order of authors in publications is based on the scope of their contribution, i.e. the author with the largest contribution appears first, followed by the author with the next largest contribution, and so on. Here, the weighting of contributions should be determined by mutual agreement among all authors. Equivalent first authorship, as can occur in collaborations, for example, is explicitly supported and must be identified accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a rule, however, the established researchers who act as corresponding authors appear at the end of the list of authors, which makes them easy to identify. In this way, researchers are given particular exposure in early career phases: this is not only conducive to an academic career, it is even a qualification criterion at some faculties\/departments. In the case of several corresponding authors, e.g. in connection with collaborative projects, a so-called inverse order might be considered: the leading corresponding author appears last, the subordinate author in the penultimate position, etc. Subject-specific deviations from this rule are common in large international collaborations.<\/p>\n\n\n
The order of authors in publications should generally be based on the scope of their contribution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","kommentar_cats":[267],"kommentar_tags":[177],"class_list":["post-5852","kommentare","type-kommentare","status-publish","hentry","kommentar_cats-natural-sciences","kommentar_tags-authorship"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
