Abstract

This paper deals with a physical-statistical analysis on the information flows in the field of superconductive thin films for 1949 to 1977. The classification of scientific research is done and an attempt is made to determine the correlations between the different types. The dynamics of growth of the number of publications is considered, and changes of researchers' scientific interests concerning the application of various chemical materials and structures in superconductive thin films are studied. The problems of professional mobility are also investigated. Conclusions are drawn on the development of the described field.
