It is shown that on the average, the number of citations to papers increases linearly with the number of authors. However, if team research takes substantially more time to perform than individual research, the advantage is lost. The larger citation rate for many-authored papers is not due to the higher citation rate for longer papers because they tend to be shorter than few-authored papers: it is also not due to certain more-active fields more multiauthored papers. Longer papers yield substantially larger numbers of citations than shorter papers, but a single long paper still yields fewer citations than the total for several shorter ones of the same combined lengths.
