There are many metrics for ranking Journals and Researchers. Most metrics are based on the number of citations and classifies Journals based on them. Current metrics have problems, e.g., for ranking new science branches, they allocate them a low ranking by mistake. In this paper, the authors will introduce a new metric entitled “Novelty Rate” in order to rank authors, papers and journals. This metric is an independent metric and it is not proposed as an alternative for impact factor or other scientific journal rankings, but with the purpose to complete them.

Abstract
There are many metrics for ranking Journals and Researchers. Most metrics are based on the number of citations and classifies Journals based on them. Current metrics have problems, e.g., for ranking new science branches, they allocate them a low ranking by mistake. In this paper, the authors will introduce a new metric entitled “Novelty Rate” in order to rank authors, papers and journals. This metric is an independent metric and it is not proposed as an alternative for impact factor or other scientific journal rankings, but with the purpose to complete them.
