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 29 March 2015.
All research outputs
#8,555,706
of 29,700,626 outputs
Outputs from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#21,857
of 42,638 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#84,273
of 287,144 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#141
of 728 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 29,700,626 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 71st percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 42,638 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.0. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% 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 287,144 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 70% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 728 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
