This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. 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 28 February 2026.
All research outputs
#3,450,947
of 28,818,276 outputs
Outputs from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#5,261
of 41,863 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#58,652
of 357,433 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#126
of 766 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 28,818,276 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 87th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 41,863 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 87% 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 357,433 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 83% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 766 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
