Jorge E. Hirsch is an Argentine-American physicist known for his work in condensed matter physics and his development of the Hirsch index, a metric used to measure the productivity and citation impact of a researcher’s publications. The Hirsch index (h-index) combines both the number of publications and the number of citations to provide a single number that reflects the scientific output of a researcher. It has become a widely used tool in academia to assess research performance.
