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.
