This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 15. 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 05 June 2018.
All research outputs
#2,628,124
of 28,829,220 outputs
Outputs from The Astrophysical Journal
#4,965
of 45,819 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#47,170
of 346,627 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Astrophysical Journal
#82
of 663 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 28,829,220 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 90th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 45,819 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 13.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% 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 346,627 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 86% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 663 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
