Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics

Conny Aerts mainly investigates Astrophysics, Stars, Astronomy, Asteroseismology and Photometry. Conny Aerts incorporates Astrophysics and Context in her research. While the research belongs to areas of Stars, she spends her time largely on the problem of Spectral line, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Spectroscopy and Instability.

Her Asteroseismology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Stellar structure, Convection, Dipole and Stellar rotation, Rotation. Her research in Cepheid variable focuses on subjects like RR Lyrae variable, which are connected to Astrometry and Sky. The concepts of her Light curve study are interwoven with issues in Rotation period, Exoplanet, Mode coupling, Binary star and Orbital eccentricity.

Her most cited work include:

  • Gaia Data Release 2 Summary of the contents and survey properties (6446 citations)
  • The Gaia mission (3783 citations)
  • Gaia Data Release 1 Summary of the astrometric, photometric, and survey properties (1941 citations)

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

Her primary areas of study are Astrophysics, Stars, Astronomy, Asteroseismology and Photometry. She has included themes like Amplitude and Spectral line in her Astrophysics study. Her Stellar evolution, Stellar structure, Binary star and Variable star study in the realm of Stars connects with subjects such as Context.

Her research investigates the connection between Asteroseismology and topics such as Rotation that intersect with issues in Magnetic field. Her studies in Photometry integrate themes in fields like Spectroscopy and Open cluster. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mercator projection and Spectrograph.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (133.18%)
  • Stars (96.24%)
  • Astronomy (58.18%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (133.18%)
  • Stars (96.24%)
  • Asteroseismology (52.35%)

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

Conny Aerts spends much of her time researching Astrophysics, Stars, Asteroseismology, Light curve and Context. Conny Aerts focuses mostly in the field of Astrophysics, narrowing it down to topics relating to Radiative transfer and, in certain cases, Oscillation. The Stars study combines topics in areas such as Mixing, Magnetic field and Angular momentum.

Her research in Magnetic field intersects with topics in Amplitude and Rotation period. Her Asteroseismology study is concerned with the field of Astronomy as a whole. The various areas that Conny Aerts examines in her Light curve study include Variable star, Stellar pulsation, Halo, Kepler and Spectral line.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Gaia Data Release 2 Summary of the contents and survey properties (6446 citations)
  • Gaia Data Release 2: Observational Hertzsprung-Russell diagrams (593 citations)
  • Gaia Data Release 2: Observational Hertzsprung-Russell diagrams (569 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics

Her main research concerns Astrophysics, Stars, Asteroseismology, Light curve and Photometry. She usually deals with Astrophysics and limits it to topics linked to Amplitude and Magnetic field. Stars is a subfield of Astronomy that she tackles.

Her Astronomy research integrates issues from Space and Inertial frame of reference. Her research investigates the connection with Asteroseismology and areas like Stellar mass which intersect with concerns in Binary star, Stellar atmosphere and Effective temperature. Her Light curve study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Rotation period, Spectral line and Exoplanet.
