Influence of the first-mover advantage on the gender disparities in physics citations

Many ways of assessing gender gap in citations have been proposed, and many explanations for such gap advanced. Here the authors analyze the gender difference in citations in physics, and claim that timing is one of the main driving forces of the gender difference in citations.
