Abstract

I propose a new measure, the w-index, as a particularly simple and useful way to assess the integrated impact of a researcher's work, especially his or her excellent papers. The w-index can be defined as follows: A researcher has index w if w of his/her papers have at least 10w citations each, and the other papers have fewer than 10(w+1) citations. It is a significant improvement of the h-index.
