Beginning in mid-February 2008, the 1997-2007 online version of the Science Watch® newsletter, ESI-Topics.com, and in-cites.com, will all be featured together on the redesigned ScienceWatch.com. All previous content from the three sites will be permanently archived, and remain accessible from any existing bookmarks to the archived pages. No new content will be added to this site. Updates and new content (updated biweekly) are available at ScienceWatch.com now.

Hot Paper in Physics

"8B and hep neutrino measurements from 1258 of Super-Kamiokande data," by S. Fukuda and 110 others (the Super-Kamiokande Collaboration), Physical Review Letters, 86(25): 5651-5, 18 June 2001.

[Authors' affiliations: 27 institutions worldwide]

From the abstract: "Solar neutrino measurements from 1258 days of data from the Super-Kamiokande detector are presented. The measurements are based on recoil electrons in the energy range of 5.0-20.0 MeV....The recoil electron energy spectrum is consistent with no spectral distortion. For the hep neutrino flux, we set up a 90% C.L. upper limit of 40 x 10 (to the third) cm (to the minus two) s (to the minus one), which is 4.3 times the BP2000 SSM prediction."

This 2001 report from Physical Review Letters was cited 25 times in current journal articles indexed in the ISI database during July-August 2002. Only two other physics papers published in the last two years, aside from reviews, attracted more citations during that two-month period. This report is one of several recent Hot Papers from the Super-Kamiokande Collaboration. This group, at an underground facility in Japan, uses a vast tank filled with water and lined with detectors to capture and characterize the nearly massless subatomic particles known as neutrinos. Prior to the most recent bimonthly count, citations to the paper have accrued as follows:

May-June 2002: 19 citations
March-April 2002: 16
January-February 2002: 6
November-December 2001: 13
September-October 2001: 7
July-August 2001: 1

Total citations to date: 87

SOURCE: Hot Papers Database (Included with a subscription to the ISI print newsletter Science Watch®, available from the ISI Research Services Group. Packaged on a CD-ROM that is mailed with each Science Watch issue, the Hot Papers Database contains data on hundreds of highly cited papers published during the last two years. User interface permits searching by author, organization, journal, field, and more. Total citations, as well as citations accrued during successive bimonthly periods, can be assessed and graphed. An updated CD containing the most recent bimonthly data is mailed with every new issue of Science Watch, six times a year. The CD also includes an electronic version of the Science Watch issue in HTML format, for personal desktop access.)
