The list of highly cited institutions is dominated by institutions with their own hadron or heavy-ion colliders and institutions that have a large number of physicists involved in the detector collaborations. Brookhaven, CERN, and Fermilab all appear in the top four in the list of total cites and total papers, albeit in different orders, while number three in total cites is the Joint Institute of Nuclear Research in Russia—with 18 member states—and the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics, INFN.
As with the nations, the institutions with the highest cites per paper tend to be smaller institutions, with the Institute for High Energy Physics in Russia leading the way, followed by Florida State University, Columbia University and the Argonne National Laboratory.

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.
