Essential Science IndicatorsSM from Thomson Reuters lists highly cited papers in 22 broad fields of science. These papers comprise the top 1% of papers in each field and each year. The lists are updated every two months to reflect their current citation counts and also include new papers that enter the top percentile.

ScienceWatch.com here identifies a subset of these papers having the largest percentage increase in citations in their respective fields from one bimonthly update to the next. We call these "fast breaking papers" because they represent very recent scientific contributions that are just beginning to attract the attention of the scientific community. For full details and citation histories of these papers, see Essential Science Indicators listings of highly cited papers.

Some papers have comments sent in by the author(s) of the paper which may include images and descriptions of their work.
