Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Astrophysics

His primary scientific interests are in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Sky and Quasar. His study in Astrophysics concentrates on Redshift, Stars, Redshift survey, Milky Way and Baryon acoustic oscillations. His Redshift research integrates issues from Cosmology, Dark energy, Baryon and Photometry.

In his work, Astrometry is strongly intertwined with Astronomical spectroscopy, which is a subfield of Galaxy. His Sky research incorporates elements of Observatory, Remote sensing and Telescope. His research in Quasar intersects with topics in Spectral line, Spectrograph, Active galactic nucleus and Radial velocity.

His most cited work include:

  • Maps of Dust Infrared Emission for Use in Estimation of Reddening and Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation Foregrounds (13483 citations)
  • Maps of Dust IR Emission for Use in Estimation of Reddening and CMBR Foregrounds (13146 citations)
  • The Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Technical summary (8500 citations)

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

His main research concerns Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Sky and Redshift. He frequently studies issues relating to Spectral line and Astrophysics. His Galaxy research focuses on Cosmic microwave background and how it relates to Amplitude.

His work on Data release as part of general Sky research is frequently linked to Imaging data, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. David J. Schlegel interconnects Cosmology, Dark energy, Spectral resolution and Emission spectrum in the investigation of issues within Redshift. David J. Schlegel works mostly in the field of Stars, limiting it down to concerns involving Halo and, occasionally, Dark matter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (86.80%)
  • Galaxy (55.28%)
  • Astronomy (55.11%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (86.80%)
  • Sky (48.06%)
  • Astronomy (55.11%)

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

David J. Schlegel focuses on Astrophysics, Sky, Astronomy, Galaxy and Redshift. His works in Quasar, Dark energy, Baryon, Baryon acoustic oscillations and Photometry are all subjects of inquiry into Astrophysics. In the field of Sky, his study on Data release overlaps with subjects such as Bass.

His work in the fields of Galaxy cluster, Cosmology, Solar System and LIGO overlaps with other areas such as European research. His study ties his expertise on Cluster analysis together with the subject of Galaxy. His study looks at the intersection of Redshift and topics like Selection with Sample.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The clustering of galaxies in the completed SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: cosmological analysis of the DR12 galaxy sample (1390 citations)
  • 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)
  • Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Mapping the Milky Way, Nearby Galaxies and the Distant Universe (728 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Milky Way

His primary areas of study are Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Sky and Redshift. His study in the field of Quasar, Dark energy, Stars and LIGO also crosses realms of Boss. The concepts of his Galaxy study are interwoven with issues in Telescope, Baryon and Noise.

His work on Cosmology, Galaxy formation and evolution, Halo occupation distribution and Stellar population as part of general Astronomy research is frequently linked to European research, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Data release study in the realm of Sky interacts with subjects such as Set. David J. Schlegel combines subjects such as Spectral line, Emission spectrum and Surface brightness with his study of Redshift.
