Abstract: This bibliometric study is to provide a quantitative analysis of the authorship of Nature, Science, and Cell from 1991 to 1993. The source data consist of two sets: The hot papers in biology and the selective sample of articles, research articles, reports, or letters from three respective periodicals. The results show that the hot papers have more authors, more institutions participating in the research than the non‐hot papers. The results also show that funding sources are significantly related to the mean number of authors per paper. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
