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 23 January 2026.
All research outputs
#22,191,842
of 31,925,841 outputs
Outputs from The Astrophysical Journal
#35,719
of 47,676 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#72,288
of 176,685 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Astrophysical Journal
#100
of 231 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 31,925,841 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 47,676 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 13.6. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% 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 176,685 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 54% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 231 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
