It is proposed that since scientific output of individual researchers is not unidimensional, its popular measure, /h/-index, should be augmented with a measure of the average impact of the /h/ top cited publications, /i/, that is basically independent of /h/. It is argued that the two metrics, /h/ and /i/, reflect two separate facets of scientific output, the latter being little affected by seniority.
