Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Astrophysics

His main research concerns Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Redshift and Sky. Astrophysics is a component of his Galaxy formation and evolution, Elliptical galaxy, Stellar population, Baryon and Dark energy studies. His research on Galaxy often connects related areas such as Stars.

Daniel Thomas interconnects Cosmology, Luminosity and Dark matter in the investigation of issues within Redshift. The Sky study combines topics in areas such as Redshift survey, Observatory, Visual inspection and Spectrograph. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Astronomical spectroscopy, Celestial sphere and Radial velocity.

His most cited work include:

  • The eleventh and twelfth data releases of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: final data from SDSS-III (1815 citations)
  • The eleventh and twelfth data releases of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: final data from SDSS-III (1815 citations)
  • SDSS-III: MASSIVE SPECTROSCOPIC SURVEYS OF THE DISTANT UNIVERSE, THE MILKY WAY, AND EXTRA-SOLAR PLANETARY SYSTEMS (1779 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Redshift and Dark energy. His study in Galaxy formation and evolution, Metallicity, Star formation, Stellar population and Elliptical galaxy is carried out as part of his studies in Astrophysics. His Stellar population research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Globular cluster, Spectral line, Abundance of the chemical elements and Milky Way.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Galaxy, Observatory is strongly linked to Sky. The various areas that Daniel Thomas examines in his Redshift study include Cluster analysis, Luminosity and Photometry. His research integrates issues of Weak gravitational lensing, Supernova, Cosmic microwave background and Dark matter in his study of Dark energy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (87.01%)
  • Galaxy (68.20%)
  • Astronomy (43.03%)

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

  • Astrophysics (87.01%)
  • Galaxy (68.20%)
  • Dark energy (22.06%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Galaxy, Dark energy, Redshift and Cosmology. His study looks at the relationship between Astrophysics and fields such as Cosmic microwave background, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His Galaxy study is related to the wider topic of Astronomy.

Daniel Thomas has researched Dark energy in several fields, including Photometric redshift, Cosmic background radiation, Weak gravitational lensing, Dark matter and Data set. His Redshift research incorporates themes from Range and Galaxy cluster. His Cosmology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Statistical physics and Sigma.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Fourteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic data from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey and from the second phase of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (753 citations)
  • Dark Energy Survey year 1 results: Cosmological constraints from galaxy clustering and weak lensing (670 citations)
  • Dark Energy Survey Year 1 results: cosmological constraints from cosmic shear (385 citations)

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

  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics

Daniel Thomas focuses on Astrophysics, Galaxy, Dark energy, Redshift and Astronomy. His Astrophysics study frequently links to other fields, such as Cosmic microwave background. Sky, Data release and Telescope is closely connected to Observatory in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Galaxy.

His Dark energy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Weak gravitational lensing, Supernova, Dark matter and Planck. His study in Redshift is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Spectral density and Galaxy cluster. His study on Star formation is often connected to National laboratory, Fundamental physics and European research as part of broader study in Astronomy.
