Number of papers per year


The following table presents the number of published papers about Chiron in a given year. The first column gives the year, the next four columns give for each year the number of papers. The following table shows the number of papers about Chiron traced by me, and not yet present in one of the four databases. The last column gives the total number of papers published per year. This is not the sum of the five previous columns: this the number of unique papers, while a paper may be given by more than one database. The last line of the table displays the total number of papers about Chiron for each database.
