Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We place tight constraints on the growth index γ by using the recent growth history results of 2 degree Field Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS), Sloan Digital Sky Survey luminous red galaxy (SDSS-LRG), VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS) and WiggleZ data sets. In particular, we investigate several parametrizations of the growth index γ(z) by comparing their cosmological evolution using observational growth rate data at different redshifts. Utilizing a standard likelihood analysis we find that the use of the combined growth data provided by the 2dFGRS, SDSS-LRG, VVDS and WiggleZ galaxy surveys puts the most stringent constraints on the value of the growth index. As an example, assuming a constant growth index we obtain that γ= 0.602 ± 0.055 for the concordance Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) expansion model. Concerning the Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (DGP) gravity model, we find γ= 0.503 ± 0.06, which is lower and almost 3σ away from the theoretically predicted value of Finally, based on a time varying growth index we also confirm that the combined growth data disfavour the DGP gravity. © 2012 The Authors Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society © 2012 RAS.
