Published weeks ago.
Cited already.

Papers from the last 90 days, ranked by the citations they have already collected, across five fields. Each one carries three routes to the full text: free first, then university access, then the publisher.

— papers — free to read since — updated —

What this ranking does and does not mean

The only thing being measured is how quickly a paper got cited. That is not a claim about quality. A paper published this week has zero citations, so genuinely brand-new work cannot rank here at all. What you see is work from a few weeks to three months old that someone has already cited.

Early citations have causes other than merit. A well-known lab, a crowded field, a large author list, an earlier preprint — each of them speeds citation up. Quiet papers that matter years later never appear here.

FWCI compares a paper against the average for its field and year, where 1.0 is average. It lets you compare across fields, but it swings wildly while the citation count is still in single digits. Treat it as a hint. Data from OpenAlex (CC0).

Getting to the full text

  1. Take the free PDF when there is one. It is open access, so no login is involved. In practice this covers roughly seven papers in ten.
  2. "Read via Waseda" goes through OpenAthens. It sends you to the university sign-in page; use your MyWaseda credentials. The session persists afterwards, so later papers open directly.
  3. If the full text still will not open, Waseda does not subscribe to that journal. The library can order a copy from another institution through interlibrary loan.

Waseda moved from EZproxy to OpenAthens on 30 March 2026 and does not offer a VPN for off-campus access, which makes this redirector the only route into subscribed journals from outside the campus network. If you are at another institution, follow the DOI link and authenticate through your own library.
