| Abstract: | Applying bibliometrics techniques on the data analyzed from Science Citation Index for the years 1968 to 1977, it was found that the Le Pichon's well known article published in 1968 in the Journal of Geophysical Research proved 'infectious' and spread the new idea on sea-floor throughout the world. The article received in all 593 citations during this period and followed a well defined epidemic pattern, receiving maximum citations in the year 1970 and getting slowly stabilized in the year 1974. |
