How this service works
Top papers driving a research topic's research intensity (title, DOI, venue, year, citations).
Output
A ranked list of top academic papers associated with the specified research topic (keyword or sector), each with metadata including title, DOI, publication venue, year of publication, and citation count — reflecting their contribution to the topic's research intensity score.
Example use cases
Tracking hot papers in emerging tech
“What are the top papers fueling research intensity in the quantum computing keyword right now? Give me titles, DOIs, and how many citations each has.”
Sector-level literature review for investors
“I'm analyzing the photovoltaics sector — can you pull the most influential papers driving its research intensity score, with venue and year details?”
Competitive research landscape scan
“For the CRISPR keyword, show me the top academic papers by research intensity — I need the title, DOI, journal, and citation count for each.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://www.elements-live.com/v1/subjects/:subject_type/:subject_id/papers?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need the specific academic papers most responsible for a research topic's research intensity score — as opposed to retrieving intensity metrics, historical trends, or associated chemical elements. It is the right choice when the agent needs bibliometric detail (DOI, venue, citations) rather than aggregate statistics. Prefer this over a general literature search when you want papers ranked by research intensity contribution rather than raw citation count or recency.
Side effects
- Invalid or unrecognized subject_id returns no results or an error — use /v1/subjects/search to resolve valid IDs first
- Invalid subject_type (not 'keyword' or 'sector') causes a schema validation error
- Payment failure (x402) blocks the response if USDC is not properly authorized
- Empty result set if the topic has no associated papers indexed
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion for high-frequency callers
