Ion, Computational physics, Impurity and Magnetic field are some topics wherein Plasma research discussed in Nuclear materials and energy have an impact. The research on Divertor tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of ASDEX Upgrade, Nuclear engineering, Heat flux and Jet (fluid), Mechanics.
The journal facilitates discussions on Nuclear engineering that incorporate concepts from other fields like Beryllium, Fusion power and Forensic engineering. The featured Tungsten research is covered under the field of Metallurgy. Topics in Analytical chemistry were tackled in line with various other fields like Deuterium, Hydrogen, Thermal desorption spectroscopy and Irradiation, Fluence.
Issues in Irradiation were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Hardening (metallurgy), Transmission electron microscopy and Neutron. It explores topics in Atomic physics which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Electron temperature, Electron and DIII-D. Nuclear materials and energy tackles issues in Composite material, particularly in the topics of Microstructure and Ultimate tensile strength.
The published papers facilitate discussions on Tungsten, Divertor, Plasma, Metallurgy and Nuclear engineering. The journal publications address concerns in Tungsten which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Deuterium, Irradiation, Analytical chemistry, Ion and Composite material. While work presented in the journal publications provide substantial information on Divertor, it also covers topics in Heat flux, Jet (fluid), Fusion power and Atomic physics.
The main points discussed in the journal deals with Plasma, Divertor, Tungsten, Tokamak and Nuclear engineering. While Nuclear materials and energy focused on Plasma, it was also able to explore topics like Hydrogen, Computational physics, Jet (fluid), Atomic physics and Ion. The journal facilitates discussions on Divertor that incorporate concepts from other fields like Langmuir probe, Neon, Toroid, Heat flux and Mechanics.
It holds forums on Tungsten that merges themes from other disciplines such as Deuterium, Sputtering, Thermal desorption spectroscopy, Analytical chemistry and Composite material. The research on Tokamak featured in it combines topics in other fields like Thermal, Impurity and Optics. It addresses concerns in the field of Nuclear engineering by exploring it in line with topics in Blanket which intersect with Neutron transport and Fusion power subjects.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Nuclear materials and energy (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Nuclear materials and energy (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 8.52% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 49.07% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 15.53% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 13.04% of all publications and 22.36% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
