A MASSIVE RUNAWAY STAR FROM 30 DORADUS**Based on observations obtained at the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope in program 184.D-0222 and with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope in program 11484, obtained at the Space Telescope Science Institute, which is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under NASA contract NAS 5-26555.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 46. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 September 2026.
All research outputs
#1,039,432
of 29,119,285 outputs
Outputs from The Astrophysical Journal Letters
#1,438
of 7,896 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,923
of 117,409 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Astrophysical Journal Letters
#2
of 68 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 29,119,285 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 96th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 7,896 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 52.0. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 117,409 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 68 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% of its contemporaries.
