Question: How to change the place of reference number? In this document I want to shift refrence [1] in superscript position of Casson.

Please help me.

Since you're loading natbib, you can use its \bibpunct command to set the style of the cituation. It has six arguments so here I say what each does in the comments. See the natbib documentation, page 13.

E.g., at the end of the preamble, put:

\bibpunct%
    {[}% punctuation before citation number
    {]}% punctuation after citation number
    {;}% punctuation between citations when more than one
    {s}% style: here "s" means "numerical superscript"
    {}% punctuation between author and year in author-year cituations
    {}% punctuation between years in author-year citations

The "s" style will make them superscripted (as opposed to the "n" style which is the regular number style).

If you wanted them all to be blue, as in your sample document, you could add that to the declaration in the start puncutation:

\bibpunct%
    {\color{blue}[}% punctuation before citation number
    {]}% punctuation after citation number
    {;}% punctuation between citations when more than one
    {s}% style: here "s" means "numerical superscript"
    {}% punctuation between author and year in author-year cituations
    {}% punctuation between years in author-year citations

Then you could simply do Casson\cite{casson1959flow} in the body.

(Alternatively, or additionally, you could load the hyperref package with the options \usepackage[citecolor=blue]{hyperref} to get them to be both colored and hyperlinked, which may be better.)

  • It works for me with your code. I added an image to my answer showing what I get when I add the code. What exactly did you do, and what result do you get? What errors if any? If a result like mine is not what you get, edit your question with your new code and post a link to your .log file.

  • You are right. This is what I want. Can you share the full code, from which you produce the above pic? I think full code will solve my problem.

  • Put it at the end of the preamble. I'll add my full code.
