Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 26. 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 02 September 2023.
All research outputs
#1,359,027
of 23,822,306 outputs
Outputs from Computational Astrophysics and Cosmology
#5
of 27 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#18,183
of 265,455 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Computational Astrophysics and Cosmology
#1
of 3 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,822,306 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 94th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 27 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 37.4. This one scored the same or higher as 22 of them.
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 265,455 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 93% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
