Year-wise growth of publications and input of records to INIS database by India and other countries were analysed . Total number of records input to INIS database by India were 30356 (54.88 %) and by other countries and international organizations were 24957 (45.12%).The average number of papers published per year were 1676.15.United States is the top producer of scientific output with 397568 (16.85%) publications in this field.

Fifty papers had more than fifty authors each. One paper &#x2018;Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research - A325, (1993), 23-91&#x2019; had 163 authors. Intensive international collaboration was found during the period and bilateral collaboration accounted for 80.06 percent of the total collaborative papers. More than 99 percent of publications were published in English. More than 60 percent of publications were published in journals. The most preferred journals by the scientists were Pramana 1327 (3.95%), Indian Journal of Pure and Applied Physics 1104 (3.29%), Physical Review -D 925 (2.75%), Journal of the Indian Chemical Society 783 (2.33%) and Indian Journal of Chemistry-A 734 (2.19%).
