About the list
The database is updated every year using Scopus data. It has two lists: a career-long list, which reflects the citation impact of a scientist’s whole publishing career, and a single-year list, which reflects the impact of citations received in one calendar year (2023 for the 2024 edition, Version 7, published on 16 September 2024).
Scientists are ranked with a composite citation indicator (c-score) that combines total citations, the h-index, the co-authorship-adjusted hm-index and citations to papers as single, first and last author. They are classified into 20 scientific fields and 174 subfields, and are included when they are among the top 100,000 scientists overall or in the top 2% of their subfield.
