Given the topic, it is no great surprise that the journal lists consist of the big names in their field, such as the various Physical Reviews, Nuclear Physics, and IEEE journals, as well as the Journal of High Energy Physics.
Of the 29 unique journals that make up these lists, 24 are listed among the top 50% in their fields in Essential Science IndicatorsSM from Clarivate. Eight of these journals are in the top 20 in their fields in Essential Science Indicators.

General Information
Top 20 Scientists, Institutions, Journals, & Nations
Citation tables allow us to map compelling trends:
- Are there particular nations or institutions that might be expected to dominate research in the Topic area, and do the numbers bear out these expectations, or are there surprises?
- Who are the leading scientists and where are they located?
While these tables cannot offer a complete picture, the number of trends and anomalies that can be spotlighted or connected across categories is striking. The tables often lead to renewed perspectives to further explore and validate.
What are Special Topics?
Special Topics, from ScienceWatch.com, is designed to complement Essential Science IndicatorsSM from Clarivate in providing citation analyses and commentary for selected scientific research areas that have experienced notable recent advances or are of special current interest.
