Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Astrophysics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Astrophysics, Galaxy, 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey, Astronomy and Redshift. Astrophysics is represented through his Redshift survey, Luminosity, Luminosity function, Gravitational microlensing and Field galaxy research. The various areas that Bruce A. Peterson examines in his Gravitational microlensing study include Halo, Dark matter halo, Optical depth, Milky Way and Dark matter.

His Galaxy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cosmology, Gamma-ray burst, Afterglow and Neutron star. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Amplitude, Cold dark matter, Spectral density and Absolute magnitude. His Redshift research includes themes of Star formation, Measure, Mass distribution and Velocity dispersion.

His most cited work include:

  • The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: spectra and redshifts (1905 citations)
  • The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Spectra and redshifts (1810 citations)
  • The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: power-spectrum analysis of the final data set and cosmological implications (1554 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Bruce A. Peterson mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Astronomy, Galaxy, Redshift and Gravitational microlensing. His study in 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey, Stars, Luminosity, Large Magellanic Cloud and Light curve falls within the category of Astrophysics. His Large Magellanic Cloud research includes elements of Small Magellanic Cloud and Photometry.

His Galaxy study often links to related topics such as Gamma-ray burst. His Velocity dispersion research extends to Redshift, which is thematically connected. Bruce A. Peterson has researched Gravitational microlensing in several fields, including Halo, Dark matter halo, Milky Way, Bulge and Dark matter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (83.18%)
  • Astronomy (50.85%)
  • Galaxy (35.73%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2019)?

  • Astrophysics (83.18%)
  • Galaxy (35.73%)
  • Redshift (23.25%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Bruce A. Peterson spends much of his time researching Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Astronomy and Gamma-ray burst. His research in Luminosity, Afterglow, Light curve, Supernova and Active galactic nucleus are components of Astrophysics. His study looks at the relationship between Galaxy and topics such as Log-normal distribution, which overlap with Power law, Goodness of fit and Poisson distribution.

In his work, Photometry and Infrared telescope is strongly intertwined with Sky, which is a subfield of Redshift. His study in Gamma-ray burst is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Extinction, Ejecta, Swift and LIGO. His study on 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey also encompasses disciplines like

  • Spectral density which is related to area like Baryon acoustic oscillations,
  • Spherical harmonics most often made with reference to Amplitude.

Between 2003 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: power-spectrum analysis of the final data set and cosmological implications (1554 citations)
  • The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Power-spectrum analysis of the final dataset and cosmological implications (1427 citations)
  • The 6dF Galaxy Survey: final redshift release (DR3) and southern large-scale structures (755 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Astrophysics

Bruce A. Peterson focuses on Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Redshift and Gamma-ray burst. His Light curve, Galaxy group, Luminosity, Luminosity function and Luminous infrared galaxy investigations are all subjects of Astrophysics research. His work on Brightest cluster galaxy, Elliptical galaxy, Stars and Giant star as part of general Astronomy research is often related to Optical depth, thus linking different fields of science.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Absolute magnitude and Spectroscopy in addition to Redshift. His work on Afterglow as part of general Gamma-ray burst study is frequently linked to Research council, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His studies deal with areas such as Sky and Velocity dispersion as well as Redshift survey.
