英文摘要：

In this paper the empirical analysis were conducted on large citation network of Hirsch-index literatures in the research hotspots of international Scientometrics. Based on the social network analysis, the main historical sequences of Hirsch-index area were firstly discussed. Then, new indicators, namely structural prestige indicators, were used into the citation network to identify the key papers that plays important roles in the development of h-index research.
