Abstract: Extends connections between retrospective citation age studies and reliability theory by considering the failure rate function from reliability, re-interpreted as the age-specific citation rate (ASCR). This is linked to earlier studies of retrospective citation distributions by Egghe and Ravichandra Rao who introduced a function claimed to correspond to what they termed the (discrete time) obsolescence or aging function. Analysis reveals their function is one whose behavior reflects ASCR. (Author/AEF)
