论文摘要
本文介绍了对数十年来天文学发表的期刊文章作者的调查的结果。该研究的重点是确定论文背后数据的特征和可访问性,指的是原始数据和衍生数据的范围,这些数据是验证特定已发表文章的结果作为科学知识胶囊的结果。策划论文背后的数据可以说是通过重复使用导致新发现。但是,如通过相关研究所示,并通过本研究的结果证实,论文背后的数据肖像通常不可用。这些发现对可重复性努力具有影响,并与开放科学的讨论一起介绍。
This paper presents results of a survey of authors of journal articles published over several decades in astronomy. The study focuses on determining the characteristics and accessibility of data behind papers, referring to the spectrum of raw and derived data that would be needed to validate the results of a particular published article as a capsule of scientific knowledge. Curating the data behind papers can arguably lead to new discoveries through reuse. However, as shown through related research and confirmed by the results of the present study, a fully accessible portrait of the data behind papers is often unavailable. These findings have implications for reusability efforts and are presented alongside a discussion of open science.
