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 06 December 2019.
All research outputs
#7,738,413
of 28,812,439 outputs
Outputs from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#20,939
of 41,859 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#138,697
of 490,957 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
#568
of 755 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 28,812,439 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 72nd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 41,859 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 490,957 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 755 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
