Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Solar System
  • Optics

Daniel T. Britt mainly focuses on Meteorite, Mineralogy, Chondrite, Geochemistry and Porosity. The study incorporates disciplines such as Impactite and Palagonite in addition to Mineralogy. His Chondrite research entails a greater understanding of Astrobiology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Achondrite and Mars Exploration Program. His Mars Exploration Program research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Shutter, Pixel, Depth of field, Field of view and Remote sensing. His studies in Porosity integrate themes in fields like Carbonaceous chondrite and Basalt.

His most cited work include:

  • The significance of meteorite density and porosity (283 citations)
  • Mineralogy, composition, and alteration of Mars Pathfinder rocks and soils: Evidence from multispectral, elemental, and magnetic data on terrestrial analogue, SNC meteorite, and Pathfinder samples (272 citations)
  • Stony meteorite porosities and densities: A review of the data through 2001 (265 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrobiology, Asteroid, Meteorite, Mineralogy and Regolith. In the field of Astrobiology, his study on Mars pathfinder, Martian, Near-Earth object and Mars Exploration Program overlaps with subjects such as Environmental science. In his work, Spectral line is strongly intertwined with Astrophysics, which is a subfield of Asteroid.

The various areas that Daniel T. Britt examines in his Meteorite study include Porosity and Geochemistry. His study in Weathering extends to Mineralogy with its themes. His Ordinary chondrite and Enstatite study are his primary interests in Chondrite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrobiology (37.74%)
  • Asteroid (35.09%)
  • Meteorite (23.02%)

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

  • Astrobiology (37.74%)
  • Asteroid (35.09%)
  • Regolith (14.34%)

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

Daniel T. Britt spends much of his time researching Astrobiology, Asteroid, Regolith, Solar System and Environmental science. His Astrobiology study is mostly concerned with Martian, Meteorite, In situ resource utilization and Carbonaceous chondrite. His research in Meteorite focuses on subjects like Thermal, which are connected to Chondrite, Thermal conduction, Computer simulation and Thermal radiation.

His research investigates the connection with Asteroid and areas like Spins which intersect with concerns in Surface processing and Near-Earth object. The Formation and evolution of the Solar System research Daniel T. Britt does as part of his general Solar System study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Contact binary, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His work in Reflectivity covers topics such as Polarization which are related to areas like Mineralogy.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Initial results from the New Horizons exploration of 2014 MU69, a small Kuiper Belt object (75 citations)
  • Initial results from the New Horizons exploration of 2014 MU69, a small Kuiper Belt Object (65 citations)
  • The geology and geophysics of Kuiper Belt object (486958) Arrokoth (37 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Solar System
  • Asteroid

His primary areas of investigation include Asteroid, Solar System, Regolith, Astrobiology and Astrophysics. His Asteroid research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Pathfinder, Remote sensing and Payload. His Formation and evolution of the Solar System study, which is part of a larger body of work in Solar System, is frequently linked to Contact binary, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His work in the fields of Astrobiology, such as Meteorite, Carbonaceous chondrite and Planetary science, intersects with other areas such as Direct exposure. His Meteorite research incorporates themes from Mechanical strength and Elemental composition. His Astrophysics research integrates issues from Wavelength and Pyroxene.
