    Abstract
    This paper explores the relationship between interdisciplinarity and scientific impact at the paper level. To do so, we first operationalize interdisciplinarity of a paper as the diversity of disciplines it references. Second, we assess whether (and to what extent) different aspects of diversity affect scientific impact, using number of citations per paper as a proxy.
