What Were the Most Important ACS Catalysis Papers Published in 2012−2013?
M
idway through the journal’s sixth year of publication, after publishing more than 2000 original research papers, it is interesting to reflect on the impact of this collection of publications on the field of catalysis. More specifically, I am curious to know the community’s opinion about how research published in ACS Catalysis has affected their thinking about their own research. To this end, with this editorial, I am happy to announce the launch of a new initiative, where we will gather feedback from readers on what they consider to be the most impactful original research paper published in ACS Catalysis in the years of 2012 and 2013. Papers published during these two years have been available long enough to affect (or not) the thinking of the catalysis community. Which original research papers published in ACS Catalysis in 2012 or 2013 have affected your thinking about catalysis in a significant way? What papers from this period in the journal will authors still be reading and citing in 2022 (i.e., 10 years later)? We invite the community to send us your thoughts on these questions. We will collect the feedback and share some of the responses later in the year. A few guidelines are given below.1
