The Institute of Physics has published a report on the “Bibliometric evaluation and international benchmarking of the UK’s physics research”.

The publication reports a decline in the United Kingdom’s share of physics paper publications over the last decade – a trend seen across most G7 countries, following an increase in the output of Chinese research. Despite this, the UK’s contribution was regarded as still having a significant impact.

The report was prepared for the Institute of Physics by Evidence, a Thomson Reuters company, which has been monitoring the UK’s physics base, impact and international standing.
