This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 22 August 2011.
All research outputs
#20,890,416
of 29,953,888 outputs
Outputs from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#32,065
of 42,992 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#123,650
of 167,769 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#141
of 242 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 29,953,888 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 42,992 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 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 167,769 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 242 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
