This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 21 May 2013.
All research outputs
#21,393,107
of 32,950,213 outputs
Outputs from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#30,120
of 43,948 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#149,472
of 233,996 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#170
of 429 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 32,950,213 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 43,948 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.1. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 233,996 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 429 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% of its contemporaries.
