Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Optics
  • Astronomy

Bruce W. Lites mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Magnetic field, Photosphere, Astronomy and Chromosphere. His biological study deals with issues like Coronal mass ejection, which deal with fields such as Solar flare. His Magnetic field research includes themes of Field and Polarimeter.

His research investigates the connection between Photosphere and topics such as Solar wind that intersect with problems in Polar. His work deals with themes such as Solar prominence, Cardinal point and Nanoflares, which intersect with Astronomy. His Chromosphere study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Corona, Spectrograph and Coronal radiative losses.

His most cited work include:

  • The Solar Optical Telescope for the Hinode Mission: An Overview (1241 citations)
  • The Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) (980 citations)
  • The Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) (945 citations)

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

Bruce W. Lites focuses on Astrophysics, Magnetic field, Sunspot, Photosphere and Astronomy. His research integrates issues of Convection, Flux, Spectral line, Chromosphere and Magnetic flux in his study of Astrophysics. His Magnetic field research is multidisciplinary, relying on both QUIET, Polarization, Optics and Computational physics.

His Sunspot research incorporates elements of Solar observatory, Field line, Solar physics and Flux tube. His research in Photosphere intersects with topics in Field, Flare, Circular polarization and Amplitude. His Astronomy research integrates issues from Solar prominence and Nanoflares.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (57.46%)
  • Magnetic field (41.59%)
  • Sunspot (37.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2017)?

  • Astrophysics (57.46%)
  • Magnetic field (41.59%)
  • Photosphere (34.29%)

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

His primary areas of study are Astrophysics, Magnetic field, Photosphere, Astronomy and Sunspot. The study incorporates disciplines such as Magnetic flux, Convection, Chromosphere and Flux in addition to Astrophysics. He studied Chromosphere and Corona that intersect with Solar wind.

The Magnetic field study combines topics in areas such as QUIET, Polarization, Field and Spectral line. His study in Photosphere is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Field strength, Field line, Computational physics and Circular polarization. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Astronomy, Coronal loop is strongly linked to Nanoflares.

Between 2006 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • The Solar Optical Telescope for the Hinode Mission: An Overview (1241 citations)
  • The Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) (980 citations)
  • The Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) (945 citations)
