Location quotient, a volume reading rather than an impact one. It surfaces small, lopsided specialities.

Field profile

Location quotient across every field it publishes in: outside the ring is more than an institution of this size would be expected to publish, inside it is less.

Which keywords describe research at Astronomical Society of Australia?

By fractional works in all years, weighted toward what it does more of than the world: Accretion Disks, Magnetic Fields, Exoplanets, Stellar Astrophysics, Molecular Clouds, Star Formation, Black Holes and X-Ray Astronomy.
