Scientific Reports Top 100 in Physics 2018

Scientific Reports, an online, multidisciplinary, open access journal from the publishers of Nature (Springer Nature Publishing) has released a list of their most highly accessed physics articles in 2018 (#SREPTop100). The list is based on nature.com web analytics, covering accesses from January to December 2018. According the Scientific Reports, the list features authors from around the World, and the papers highlight valuable research within physics from an international community.

Our paper “Thermal conductivity of graphene-hBN superlattice ribbons” is one of the Top 25 most accessed papers. Being more precise, it received 1836 article views in 2018, making  it the 11th most accessed paper out of more than 1133 papers published by Scientific Reports in 2018 including all areas of physics.

We are particularly proud of this work for two main reasons. First, because it is a product of Isaac M. Felix Master’s thesis, my first graduate student supervision ever. Second, because it has been completely developed and executed at UFRN, including the computational support provided by our supercomputing center NPAD. Isaac is currently on the final year of his Doctoral studies.
