Abstract: The g‐index is discussed in terms of the average number of citations of the publications in the g‐core, showing that it combines features of the h‐index and the A‐index in one number. For a visualization, data of 8 famous physicists are presented and analyzed. In comparison with the h‐index, the g‐index increases between 67% and 144%, on average by a factor of 2.
