Abstract

This paper presents the results of a new method that is applied for a multidimensional analysis of the publications, patents, and authors of the related arrays of documents that are prepared under thematically similar projects that are supported by a science foundation. The contribution to and impact of various groups of scientists on the results of these projects are analyzed. Specifically, it is established that Russian scientists that work abroad (expatriates) play an important role in improving the scientific level of domestic research and in engaging domestic and foreign scientists in such research investigations. The data on the distribution of publications, patents, and authors by domestic and foreign organizations and cities, as well as by subjects of the Russian Federation and foreign countries, are obtained and analyzed.
