The 30 most frequent of 172 co-authors. Circle area and line width are papers written together; the strongest ties sit nearest. 7 papers with more than fifty authors left out, as their author lists say little about who works with whom. “No African institution” is anyone the papers place outside Africa’s institutions; Peerford records affiliations only there.
