Coauthors (CA) of a "lead investigator" (LI) can receive a rank (r) accordingto their "importance" in having published joint publications with the LI. It iscommonly accepted, without any proof, that publications in peer review journalsand e.g. conference proceedings do not have the same "value" in a CV. Same forpapers contributed to encyclopedia and book chapters. It is here examinedwhether the relationship between the number (J) of publications of somescientist with her/his coauthors, ranked according to their decreasingimportance, i.e. $ J \propto 1/r^{\alpha} $, as found by Ausloos, still holdsif the overall publication list is broken into such specific types ofpublications. Several authors, with different careers, but mainly having workedin the field of statistical mechanics, are studied here to sort out answers tothe questions. The exponent $\alpha$ turns out to be weakly scientistdependent, only if the maximum value of J and r is large and is $\sim +1$ then.The $m_A$ core value, i.e. the core number of CAs, for proceedings only isabout half of the total one, i.e. when all publications are counted.Contributions to the numerical values from both encyclopedia and book chaptersare marginal. The role of a time span on $m_A$ is also examined in two cases inrelation to career activity considerations. It can considered that the findingsserve as a contrasting point of view on how to quantify an individual(publication) career as recently done by Petersen et al., here emphasizing thecollaboration size and evolution, rather than a citation count, moreoverspecifying the type of publication. Through the various $m_A$'s one candistinguish different behavior patterns of a scientist publication with CAs.
