This study explores the collaborative nature and interdisciplinarity of the origin(s) of life (OoL) research community. Although OoL research is one of the oldest topics in philosophy, religion, and science; to date there has been no review of the field utilizing bibliometric measures. A dataset of 5647 publications that are tagged as OoL, astrobiology, exobiology, and prebiotic chemistry is analyzed. The most prolific authors (Raulin, Ehrenfreund, McKay, Cleaves, Cockell, Lazcano, etc.), most cited scholars and their articles (Miller 1953, Gilbert 1986, Chyba & Sagan 1992, Wȁchtershȁuser 1988, etc.), and popular journals (Origins of Life and Evolution of Biospheres and Astrobiology) for OoL research are identified. Moreover, interdisciplinary research conducted through research networks, institutions (NASA, Caltech, University of Arizona, University of Washington, CNRS, etc.), and keywords & concepts (astrobiology, life, Mars, amino acid, prebiotic chemistry, evolution, RNA) are explored.

生命研究的起源：文献计量法。

这项研究探讨了生命起源（OoL）研究社区的协作性质和跨学科性。尽管OoL研究是哲学，宗教和科学领域最古老的话题之一；迄今为止，还没有利用文献计量学方法对该领域进行评论。分析了5647种出版物的数据集，这些出版物被标记为OoL，天体生物学，外生物学和益生元化学。最多产的作者（劳林，埃伦弗勒德，麦凯，克莱夫斯，科克尔，拉兹卡诺等），被引用最多的学者及其文章（米勒1953，吉尔伯特1986，Chyba＆Sagan 1992，Wȁchtershȁuser1988等）和流行杂志（确定了用于OoL研究的生命起源以及生物圈和天体生物学的演化。此外，通过研究网络，机构（NASA，加州理工学院，亚利桑那大学，
