The average H-index for the top 1% of scientists is 230 against an average of 131 for the top 1000 scientists included in the ranking. The highest cited scientist is Joel Nathan Butler from Fermilab with 413,256 citations. American universities constitute 70% of the 10 top leading institutions with the other two represented by institutions being based in Germany, the UK, and Italy. Schneider from Pennsylvania State University with an h-index of 269. The top-ranking scientist in physics is Donald P. In the 2022 edition of our ranking, the Max Planck Society is the leader, with 39 scientists affiliated with that institution included in the ranking. 6 out of 10 scientists in the top 1% are from the United States. The other leading countries with leading positions in the ranking are the UK (102 scientists or 10.2%), Germany (84 scientists or 8.4%), Italy (42 scientists or 4.2%), France (34 scientists or 3.4%), and Canada (24 scientists or 2.4%). Scientists from the United States dominate the list with 525 scholars included in 2022 which represents 52.5% of the whole physics scientists ranking. The key findings for the 1st edition of top physics scientists ranking The inclusion criteria for scholars to be considered into the ranking of top scientists are based on the discipline h-index, the proportion of contributions made within the given discipline in addition to the awards and achievements of the scientists. The h-index threshold for approving a scholar to be considered was set to 70 if most of their publications were in the field of physics. It is a great opportunity for all of us to learn who are the leading experts in different research areas, in different countries, as well as within different universities and research institutions.įor the 2022 edition of the ranking, more than 51,000 scientist profiles on Google Scholar and Microsoft Academic Graph have been examined with several indicators and metrics reviewed in order to consider each scientist’s inclusion in the ranking. What is more, we hope it will inspire researchers, decision-makers, and entrepreneurs around the world to find out where leading experts are heading. This list of leading scholars is designed to offer the academic community more visibility and exposure to the influential research contributions made by those at the forefront of physics. 
On July 10, 2022, released the 1st edition of the annual ranking for top scientists in the area of physics.
