Dear all,
Yesterday, I asked about impact factors. Bellow, you will find a 
summary. Thank you very much for help,

From Ralph Merkle:

The journal Nanotechnology had a 1996 impact factor of 1.881, which
placed it at the top of its category in engineering. (see:
http://www.ioppublishing.com/Journals/Catalogue/NA)

This is remarkably good for a new journal.  Phys Rev A (listed in the
URL given below) had a 1992 impact factor of 2.157

Impact factors for some physics journals are given at:

A brief discussion of the impact factor, along with links to two
articles on the subject, is at
