To help end the replication crisis and instill confidence in our scientific literature, we introduce a new process for evaluating scientific manuscripts, termed “peer replication,” in which referees independently reproduce key experiments of a manuscript. Replicated findings would be reported in citable “Peer Replication Reports” published alongside the original paper. Peer replication could be used as an augmentation or alternative to peer review and become a higher tier of publication. We discuss some possible configurations and practical aspects of adding peer replication to the current publishing environment.

| selected citations These citations are derived from selected sources. This is an alternative to the "Influence" indicator, which also reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | 1 | |
| popularity This indicator reflects the "current" impact/attention (the "hype") of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network. | Average | |
| influence This indicator reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | Average | |
| impulse This indicator reflects the initial momentum of an article directly after its publication, based on the underlying citation network. | Average |
