Abstract During the dynamic process of citation, citation takeoff indicates a turning point in the recognition of academic achievements. Based on previous work, this paper makes a further exploration of the citation takeoff. Five quantitative methods that can be used for “takeoff”-the Artificial Parameters method, the Annual Citation Growth Amount K, the Annual Citation Growth Rate Kr, the Annual Averaged Cited Growth M, and the Annual Average Cited Growth Rate Mr - have been proposed. American Physical Society (APS) citation data were chosen, and the citation curve was divided into four categories by the citation speed to identify the citation takeoff. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of each method are compared from the perspectives of recognition effect and accuracy, and detailed usage instructions are given. Though the Artificial Parameters method can accurately identify the time-point of “takeoff” and the second or multiple “takeoffs” in the citation curve, it cannot recognize all types of citations, especially in “flash in the pan” literature, which has a low recognition rate. The “delayed recognition” and “spur with long accumulation” literature can be identified by the combination of the Artificial Parameters method and the Annual Citation Growth Rate Kr, while the Annual Average Cited Growth Rate Mr has high accuracy in “leading edge” and “?ash in the pan” literature.
