His main research concerns Astrophysics, Astronomy, Galaxy, Galaxy cluster and Active galactic nucleus. His study in Star formation, Cooling flow, Elliptical galaxy, Surface brightness and Intracluster medium falls within the category of Astrophysics. He works mostly in the field of Astronomy, limiting it down to topics relating to Shock and, in certain cases, Convection, Faraday effect, Faraday cage and Radiative transfer, as a part of the same area of interest.
His work carried out in the field of Galaxy brings together such families of science as Cosmology and Computational astrophysics. His Galaxy cluster study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Luminosity, Luminosity function and Radio galaxy. His research in Active galactic nucleus intersects with topics in Intermediate-mass black hole, Quasar, Synchrotron and Black hole.
His primary scientific interests are in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Galaxy cluster and Active galactic nucleus. His study in Star formation, Cooling flow, Intracluster medium, Brightest cluster galaxy and Luminosity are all subfields of Astrophysics. His studies in Star formation integrate themes in fields like Luminous infrared galaxy, Solar mass and Spitzer Space Telescope.
His Cooling flow course of study focuses on Emission spectrum and Line. His Galaxy cluster research incorporates elements of Halo, Galaxy formation and evolution and ROSAT. His Active galactic nucleus research integrates issues from Quasar and Molecular cloud.
Brian R. McNamara mainly investigates Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Galaxy cluster and Active galactic nucleus. His study in Astrophysics focuses on Black hole, Redshift, Supermassive black hole, Intracluster medium and Brightest cluster galaxy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Nebula and Molecular cloud in addition to Galaxy.
Star formation and Cygnus A are subfields of Astronomy in which his conducts study. His Galaxy cluster research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Line and Bow shock. Brian R. McNamara interconnects Velocity gradient, Spectroscopy, Radio galaxy and Elliptical galaxy in the investigation of issues within Active galactic nucleus.
Brian R. McNamara mostly deals with Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Active galactic nucleus and Galaxy cluster. As part of his studies on Astrophysics, Brian R. McNamara often connects relevant areas like Emission spectrum. His work on Star formation and Spiral galaxy as part of general Galaxy research is often related to Protein filament, thus linking different fields of science.
In the subject of general Astronomy, his work in Spacecraft and Satellite is often linked to High resolution and First light, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His Active galactic nucleus research focuses on Velocity gradient and how it relates to X-shaped radio galaxy and Relativistic plasma. His Galaxy cluster study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Spectral line, Stellar kinematics, Solar mass and Nucleosynthesis.
