This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. 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 07 January 2026.
All research outputs
#9,658,336
of 33,122,780 outputs
Outputs from The Astrophysical Journal Letters
#5,451
of 8,509 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#80,542
of 365,527 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Astrophysical Journal Letters
#75
of 140 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,122,780 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 70th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,509 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 53.8. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% 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 365,527 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 140 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
