Overview

Charles W. Engelbracht is affiliated with the University of Arizona in the United States. The primary field of study encompasses Physics and Astronomy, with a particular focus on Astronomy and Astrophysics. Engelbracht's research addresses topics related to the formation, evolution, and phenomena of galaxies, astrophysics and star formation studies, and astrophysical phenomena and observations.

Engelbracht has contributed to multiple publications, predominantly appearing in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Two recent papers illustrate Engelbracht's area of research:

  • Exploring the dust content of galactic haloes with Herschel III. NGC 891, published in 2020 in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
  • Exploring the dust content of galactic haloes with Herschel - IV. NGC 3079, published in 2021 in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society

Engelbracht has collaborated frequently with a set of co-authors. These include:

  • Crystal L. Martin
  • Sylvain Veilleux
  • M. Meléndez
  • Thomas Mueller
  • Gerald Cecil

Their work explores various galactic and astrophysical phenomena, often focusing on the content and behavior of dust within galactic haloes. The repeated collaboration with authors such as Sylvain Veilleux and Crystal L. Martin highlights an ongoing research network in the field.
