Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the transition from SPIRES to its successor, inSPIRE, specifically focusing on how to find the citation summary of an author using inSPIRE. Participants explore the functionalities of inSPIRE and share insights on its usage in the context of high-energy physics literature.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation
  • Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant emphasizes the importance of keeping the thread in the high-energy physics subforum, asserting its relevance to professional high-energy physicists.
  • Another participant seeks clarification on whether the citation summary refers to the author's own works or to works that cite the author’s papers.
  • A third participant explains that the citation summary can be accessed by selecting "HTML citesummary" under "Output Format" after performing a search for an author.
  • It is noted that inSPIRE offers more extensive documentation compared to SPIRES, which may aid users in navigating the platform.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the functionalities of inSPIRE and how to access citation summaries, but there is some ambiguity regarding the specific nature of the citation summary being discussed.

Contextual Notes

There may be limitations in understanding the exact features of inSPIRE due to varying interpretations of what constitutes a citation summary.

First, let me ask the authorities to NOT move this thread to another subforum, because this thread is specifically interesting to the society of professional high energy physicists, and not other physicists. I am convinced this is the right place for this thread.

So, as every professional high-energy physicist knows, SPIRES is the standard way to search the relevant literature in high-energy physics. However, since it is quite slow, now there is a modernized successor of it, called inSPIRE:

My question is: Does anybody how to find the CITATION SUMMARY of an author, by using insPIRE?

Of course, other questions and comments on inSPIRE would also be appropriate here.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
You mean the contents in this page ? http://inspirebeta.net/author/Nikolic%2C%20Hrvoje?ln=en

or you're interested in the articles written by someone else, but quoting any of his 77 papers in the bibliography ?

In this last part I'm interested, too.
 
Assuming you mean the citesummary, this can be found by choosing "HTML citesummary" under "Output Format". Unlike SPIRES, however, you can only find this AFTER you have made a search. So, search for an author, then when the results come, choose the citesummary format and click search again.

Note that, unlike SPIRES, inSPIRE has more extensive documentation: http://inspirebeta.net/help/
 
Thanks the house, that's exactly what I needed. [Bigubau was also close. ;-) ]
