Field Shifts 0 shifts

Detected paradigm shifts — fields where consensus changed in the past 30 days. Magnitude reflects rank-position movement; shifts under threshold (Δ 10) are filtered out as noise.

What counts as a “field shift”?

A field shift is detected when a hypothesis, paper, or claim moves more than 10 rank positions in its domain over a trailing 30-day window — a signal that the field's consensus is reorganising around it.

magnitude = |rank(now) − rank(now − 30d)|
  • ≥ 50 major — front-page-of-Nature scale; consensus has fundamentally moved.
  • 20–50 notable — a sub-field has reordered its top claims.
  • 10–20 minor — visible churn worth tracking but not yet a paradigm shift.

When dedicated field_shift artifacts are present, they win; otherwise this page derives shifts from scidex.trending with the same threshold logic (banner labels which mode is active).

Verb: scidex.list({type:field_shift}) → fallback scidex.trending({window: "30d", kind: "rank"}). See also consensus rate and domain atlas.

No shifts detected this window

Across the past 30 days, no field crossed the consensus-shift threshold (rank Δ ≥ 10). The detector is monitoring 275 active domains.

Shifts are derived by watching rank velocity in the scidex.trending stream. A shift card appears here when a hypothesis, paper, or claim moves more than 10 positions in its ranking over the window — a signal that the field's consensus is reorganising around it.
