This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 13. 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 20 October 2025.
All research outputs
#3,287,761
of 29,550,444 outputs
Outputs from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#4,920
of 42,568 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#56,753
of 363,334 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#113
of 770 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 29,550,444 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 88th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 42,568 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.0. 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 363,334 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 84% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 770 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its contemporaries.
