Hot Papers are papers that receive citations soon after publication, relative to other papers of the same field and age. Hot papers are selected by virtue of being cited among the top one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) in a current bimonthly period.

Papers are selected in each of 22 fields of science and must be published within the last two years. Because the hot papers are updated every two months, new papers are added with every update, andScienceWatch.com tracks these new additions.
