Abstract Based on the Zakharov-Shabat equation of the inverse scattering transform for the unstable nonlinear Schr$\ddot{\rm o}$dinger equation, for which a perturbation theory with corrections is developed in this paper. All necessary formulae for calculating the scattering data are derived. Based upon these formulae, the effect due to the corrections can be studied. As an example, the correction due to the damping is calculated.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
