The graph shows the changes in the impact factor of Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics and its the corresponding percentile for the sake of comparison with the entire literature. Impact Factor is the most common scientometric index, which is defined by the number of citations of papers in two preceding years divided by the number of papers published in those years.
How Influential is Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics?
Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics is the 6th out of 62 Nuclear Physics journals. This means the journal is among the top 10% in the sub-discipline of Nuclear Physics. This Journal is the 189th out of 2,084 Physics journals. This means the journal is among the top 10% in the discipline of Physics. This Journal is the 1018th out of 11,479 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 9% in the science branch of Physical Sciences.
How are inpact factors calculated?
The impact factor (IF) is calculated by counting citations from peer-reviewed journals only.
extended IF also counts citations from books and conference papers. However, no patent, abstract, working papers, online documents, etc., are covered.
