Every two months,
Essential
Science IndicatorsSM from
Thomson Reuters
lists a new crop of what it calls hot papers in science. Hot papers are
selected by virtue of being cited among the top one-tenth of one
percent (0.1%) in a current bimonthly period. Papers are selected in
each of 22
fields of science and must be published within the last two years.
Because the hot papers are updated every two months, new papers are
added with every update, and ScienceWatch.com tracks these new
additions.
Highlights of the most-cited of these new entries, one from each field,
which are, in addition, not more than one year old. Since new hot
papers are very recent scientific contributions that are receiving
recognition during a current period, they may signal important new
trends in research and serve as leading indicators of scientific
advance. Full information, including bimonthly citation histories, for
these papers can be found in Essential Science Indicators.
Some papers have comments sent in by the author(s) of
the paper which may include images and descriptions of their work.
