This network shows the impact of papers produced by Albert Einstein. Nodes represent research fields, and links connect fields that are likely to share authors. Colored nodes show fields that tend to cite the papers produced by Albert Einstein. The network helps show where Albert Einstein may publish in the future.

Co-authorship network of co-authors of Albert Einstein

This figure shows the co-authorship network connecting the top 25 collaborators of Albert Einstein. A scholar is included among the top collaborators of Albert Einstein based on the total number of citations received by their joint publications. Widths of edges represent the number of papers authors have co-authored together. Node borders signify the number of papers an author published with Albert Einstein. Albert Einstein is excluded from the visualization to improve readability, since they are connected to all nodes in the network.

Rankless uses publication and citation data sourced from OpenAlex, an open and comprehensive bibliographic database. While OpenAlex provides broad and valuable coverage of the global research landscape, it—like all bibliographic datasets—has inherent limitations. These include incomplete records, variations in author disambiguation, differences in journal indexing, and delays in data updates. As a result, some metrics and network relationships displayed in Rankless may not fully capture the entirety of a scholar's output or impact.
